Lyrics
Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can’t help falling in love with you
Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin
If I can’t help falling in love with you?Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to beTake my hand
Take my whole life, too
For I can’t help falling in love with youLike a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to beTake my hand
Take my whole life, too
For I can’t help falling in love with you
For I can’t help falling in love with you
