The Fall Lyrics

Oh, make love to me
One more time
Before you go away
Why can't you stay?

Oh, my love
Come home to me
Just for a while
I'll leave this place with you
Why can't you stay?

Don't run away
Don't slip away, my dear
Don't run away
Don't slip away, my dear
Don't run away

Oh, the sun is gone
The fell into the fall
But I don't want it this way
Why can't you stay?

Don't run away
Don't slip away, my dear
Don't run away
Don't slip away, my dear
Don't run away
Ohh, ohh

There should be words
There should be words that explain the way
But I'll talk tongue twisted
There's no words

Don't run away
Don't slip away, my dear

Cover art for The Fall lyrics by Rhye

This song as a person who is in love with someone but that person is leaving, and is trying to convince them to stay. The fact that they are leaving cannot be changed. This is shown by the inevitability of "The sun is gone, it fell into the fall But I don’t want it this way, why can’t you stay" They cannot change the sun as they cannot change their lovers mind. Beautiful song

Cover art for The Fall lyrics by Rhye

After watching the music video, I decided it's about the protagonist having a crisis about his or her marriage. They've been together for a long time now, and they no longer have as much fun together as they used to. He/she feels as if they're drifting apart, much to his/her vexation; Or rather, the protagonist wishes they hadn't grown up so fast, and could relive their days of young-love.

In the video, the guy remains the same age throughout. His wife seems to switch back and forth between herself and her younger-self (either flashbacks or simply in the guy's mind/fantasy). He misses the fun-loving nature of her younger self. The song represents his plea for her to step back and remember when things weren't always so serious, and bring back a little newly-wed fun to their seasoned marriage.
