VERSE 1:
You think that I’m just some guy with a problem
Your beauty is such that no one can claim
But I know you right down to your very soul
For my own soul’s been kindled by your flame
You think that I’m so daft I must be joking
That none like me could ever fall for you
But if you walked a mile in my sandals
You’d learn things about me you never knew
CHORUS:
Can’t you see I’m forever falling in love with you?
That there is nothing else inside my heart
Do you remember that one night in late November?
Can’t you see that I’ve been falling from the start?
VERSE 2:
Come walk with me barefoot out on the concrete
Come sit with me as the sun starts to set
Come teach me how to dance out in the moonlight
And for once, be at peace without regrets
The wonders and the beauty I could show you
Are such that even you can’t comprehend
And if you’d teach me, I would be your student
Oh! the barriers of doubt we could transcend
CHORUS:
Can’t you see I’m forever falling in love with you?
That I can’t stand each moment we’re apart
Do you remember that one night in late November?
Can’t you see that I’ve been falling from the start?
BRIDGE:
How much love can we undergo?
If you turn back now, you will never know
CHORUS:
And you’ll never see I’m forever falling in love with you
Or understand these words I must impart
Do you remember that one night in late November?
Can’t you see that I’ve been falling from the start?
You can own my heart and still
You cannot know me until
You can see that I’ve been falling from the start
Author notes
Option 8 in the contest "Options". There are a few references in this song that only I fully understand. For instance, if you pay attention, you'll notice that my screen name is in the song. Enjoy.

I really like it!!
This is a lovely and well phrased and flowing. I love the entire "forever falling" essence of the song. This is a classic. The theme of "we were meant for each other" is a timeless and resonant device that always works. Who would not love to have a love like that. I really love it. This is the first lyric I have read over in the group and it has truly touched me and inspired me. I can't seem to get the "falling from the start" line out of my head. I am going to try to write something to let this out. I will post it later. Beautiful words, constructed beautifully.
thanks for sharing.
