Can't Help Falling in Love
Zayn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(originally by Elvis Presley)

Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can't help falling
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin?
For I can't help falling

Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be

Take my hand
Take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be

Take my hand
Take my whole life, too
For I can't help falling in love with you
Falling in love with you

I've been falling for you, baby
I, I can' help falling
I just can't help falling in love
I, I can' help falling
I just can't help falling in love




I just can't help falling in love
I just can't help falling in love

He begins by acknowledging that "wise men say only fools rush in," but he just can't help falling in love. He expresses his deep admiration for this person and asks whether it would be a sin to stay with them, despite the risks.
