Falling for You
The Harpoons Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That I shoul be scared
Of falling in love
With you
But I can't
Hold it in no more
And you wouldn't want
Every night (my love??? ain't long???)
I feel it inside of me.
Another night with you
Is drifting away
You know it's only time
Before I fall for you
Yes, you know it's only time
Before I fall for you
Now that you know the way
That I feel for you
I would wait everynight and everyday
To know if you feel it too
The lyrics of the song Falling For You by The Harpoons reveal the emotional struggle of a person who simply cannot resist falling in love with someone, despite knowing that it might not be the best idea. The first verse admits the fear of falling in love, knowing that it may lead to heartbreak and pain. Nevertheless, the singer is unable to contain their feelings any longer and hopes that the person they're in love with understands the predicament.
As the song progresses, it becomes apparent that the singer spends most nights mulling over their emotions, trying to come to terms with their vulnerability. Despite the doubts and fears, there's an unshakable belief that falling for this person is inevitable. They address the object of their affection, reminding them that eventually, they too will realize that the connection between them is undeniable.
Line by Line Meaning
I know
I am aware
That I should be scared
I should have fear
Of falling in love
Of developing romantic feelings
With you
Towards you
But I can't
However, I am unable
Hold it in no more
Repress my feelings no longer
And you wouldn't want
And I presume your desire would not be for me to
me to
Refrain from doing so
Every night (my love??? ain't long???)
Each night, a brief sense of affection
I feel it inside of me.
I experience it internally
Another night with you
Spending time with you once again
Is drifting away
Is slowly slipping out of grasp
You know it's only time
You understand that it is merely a matter of time
Before I fall for you
Before my emotions become overwhelming
Yes, you know it's only time
Undoubtedly, you comprehend that it is only a matter of time
Before I fall for you
Before my emotions become overwhelming
Now that you know the way
Given that you are now aware of the direction
That I feel for you
That my romantic feelings reside towards you
I would wait everynight and everyday
I am prompted to anticipate every moment
To know if you feel it too
To determine whether you reciprocate the same emotions
