Falling Over You Lyrics

I was always... I was always... stop!
- wait a minute. I'll remember...I think it was September...
Taking off time, taking off clothes
Taking more than I needed I suppose
Taking rides in strangers' cars
Handsome lips, topless bars
Falling down the stairs in a white wedding dress
Looking like a mess, just like I never close
Off somebody's balcony, I suppose
Falling out the window into the warm wet night
You gave me such a thrill then you gave me such a fright
...yes I remember that particular night

I was always falling over you

All that summer long one night ran into another
I was falling over you when I didn't know your number
I was always...I was always...stop!
- wait a minute. I'll remember...it was really December...

I was always falling over you

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.
