Discover the story of the song > Can’t Help Falling in Love – UB40

The lyrics talk about how the protagonist is in love with his partner and can't help it, even though wise people say that love should be taken slowly. He acknowledges that some things are meant to be, and even though he knows it might be a sin to rush into things, he still wants to take his partner's hand and spend his whole life with her. The chorus repeats that some things are meant to be, like a river flowing to the sea, and the song ends with the protagonist stating that he can't help falling in love with his partner.
