Parachute Lyrics

I don't tell anyone about the way you hold my hand
I don't tell anyone about the things that we have planned
I won't tell anybody
Won't tell anybody
They want to push me down
They want to see you fall

Won't tell anybody how you turn my world around
I won't tell anyone how your voice is my favourite sound
Won't tell anybody
Won't tell anybody
They want to see us fall
They want to see us fall

I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down, down, down

Don't believe the things you tell yourself so late night and
You are your own worst enemy
You'll never win the fight
Just hold on to me
I'll hold on to you
It's you and me up against the world
It's you and me

I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down, down, down

I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of,
I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of,
I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of,
I won't fall out of love
I'll fall into you

I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down, down, down

I don't tell anyone about the way you hold my hand 
I don't tell anyone about the things that we have planned 
I won't tell anybody 
Won't tell anybody 
They want to push me down 
They want to see you fall

Won't tell anybody how you turn my world around 
I won't tell anyone how your voice is my favourite sound 
Won't tell anybody 
Won't tell anybody 
They want to see us fall 
They want to see us fall

I don't need a parachute 
Baby, if I've got you 
Baby, if I've got you 
I don't need a parachute 
You're gonna catch me 
You're gonna catch if I fall 
Down, down, down

Don't believe the things you tell yourself so late night and 
You are your own worst enemy 
You'll never win the fight 
Just hold on to me 
I'll hold on to you 
It's you and me up against the world 
It's you and me

I don't need a parachute 
Baby, if I've got you 
Baby, if I've got you 
I don't need a parachute 
You're gonna catch me 
You're gonna catch if I fall 
Down, down, down

I won't fall out of love 
I won't fall out of, 
I won't fall out of love 
I won't fall out of, 
I won't fall out of love 
I won't fall out of, 
I won't fall out of love 
I'll fall into you

I don't need a parachute 
Baby, if I've got you 
Baby, if I've got you 
I don't need a parachute 
You're gonna catch me 
You're gonna catch if I fall 
Down, down, down

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song is so cute.

Literally just a song about being in a nice relationship with someone who will look after you. Thing with Cheryl Cole is, she reiterates that she isn't going to 'fall out of love.' To me, that just sounds like she's worried she might.

Mm tis cute.

To me it's a song saying that sometimes society is a harsh judge on ppl and relationships, and sometimes you just gotta believe that you and the one you love can stand together.

I believe that this song is about being a lesbian. Considereing Ingrid Michaelson wrote this song (many of her songs have been highly interpreted as her being a lesbian....), it probably means that she and her parter are up against the world... And like she won't tell anybody because she's still in the closet... That's my opinion... I absolutely love this song... I'm gonna dedicate it to this girl I really love because I don't know how she'll take it if she was the first person I came out to and on top of that she's the one I love... Hahaha hopefully she gets the idea because we have held hands before and I would hold her hand for a really long time without letting go... Haha :D <---- my life :O
