Falling in Love
Uriah Heep Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Keep on falling love
Now I don't mind
All this running around
Seems I've been doing it
Most of my life
My music's been kind
It brings me two kinds of trouble
And three kinds of strife
So don't try to compare it
'cause I just want to
Share it with some people
I like to call friends
There ain't nothing bad and
No need to feel sad
And there's certainly no need
To make amends
It won't do you no harm and
There's no cause for alarm
I won't be praying for
Help from above
If the only thing
Wrong with rock and roll
Is that I keep on falling in love
If the only thing
Wrong with rock and roll
Is that I keep on falling
Keep on falling
Keep on falling in love

He doesn't need help from above nor from anyone else to enjoy the music and the feeling that comes with it. He is content with his love for the music and sees it as a blessing rather than a curse. He repeats that there is nothing wrong with rock and roll if the only thing he keeps on doing is falling in love.

Line by Line Meaning
Falling keep on falling
Continuing to fall in love
Keep on falling love
Falling in love repeatedly
Now I don't mind
I don't have a problem
All this running around
Travelling and performing often
Seems I've been doing it
Feels like I've been doing it for a long time
Most of my life
For a significant portion of my existence
My music's been kind
My music has been good to me
But some days I find
On occasion, I realize
It brings me two kinds of trouble
It causes me problems in two distinct ways
And three kinds of strife
And creates three types of conflict
So don't try to compare it
Please don't attempt to measure it against others
'cause I just want to
Because I only desire to
Share it with some people
Share my music with my pals
I like to call friends
Whom I enjoy and cherish
There ain't nothing bad and
There's nothing negative about it
No need to feel sad
Don't feel sorry for me
And there's certainly no need
Definitely no requirement
To make amends
To apologize or make up for anything
It won't do you no harm and
It won't hurt you and
There's no cause for alarm
There is no need to be concerned
I won't be praying for
I won't be seeking divine assistance for
Help from above
Assistance from a higher power
If the only thing
If the sole issue
Wrong with rock and roll
With rock and roll, the only flaw
Is that I keep on falling in love
Is that I continue to fall in love
Keep on falling
Continuing to fall
Keep on falling
Falling repeatedly
Keep on falling in love
Continuing to fall in love repeatedly
