Falling for You
Teenage Mutants Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Said there'd be no going back
Promised myself I'd never be that sad
Maybe that's why you've come along
To show me, it's not always bad
'Cause I can feel it, baby
I feel like I'm falling for you
But I'm scared to let go, I'm scared
'Cause my heart has been hurt so
It's true I've become a skeptic
How many couples really love
Just wish I had a crystal ball
To show me, if it's worth it all
'Cause I can feel it, baby
I feel like I'm falling for you
But I'm scared to let go, I'm scared
'Cause my heart has been hurt so
Yeah I can feel it, baby
I feel like I'm falling for you
But I'm scared to let go, I'm scared
'Cause my heart has been hurt so
I've got to be sure
'Cause it's been so long
And I cannot take the pain again
If it all goes wrong
'Cause I can feel it, baby
I feel like I'm falling for you
But I'm scared to let go, I'm scared
'Cause my heart has been hurt so
Yeah I can feel it, baby
I feel like I'm falling for you
But I'm scared to let go, I'm scared
'Cause my heart has been hurt so
I want you so much, I need you so much
I want you so much, I need you so much




I want you so much, I need you so much
I want you so much, I need you so much
