On My Way Down
Falling for Love: Cade Hoppe's Melodic Descent
Lyrics
It was a fall day
Describing a day during autumn
Beautiful cliché
A lovely but expected situation
It was the first date
Refers to the initial romantic encounter
I should've kissed you anyway
Regrets not taking the chance to kiss
You got me
Feeling captivated or infatuated despite a sense of loss
You got me
-You got me
-Crushing as you walked away
-Your birthday party
Recollection of a birthday celebration involving alcohol and singing
Was sweating in the lobby
-We drank a little whiskey
-And sang the karaoke
-You got me
Continued feelings of being captivated despite separation
You got me
-You got me
-Crushing as I walked away
-It's kinda funny looking back
Reflecting humorously on past experiences
I'm on my way down
Expressing a sense of falling without realizing it, questioning if the partner would believe it
I'm on my way down
-I'm on my way down and I never even knew I jumped
-Would you believe it?
-Baby, would you believe it?
-Would you believe it if I told you I've been falling for months?
-I'm on my way down
Continued disbelief and surprise at falling for someone unexpectedly
I'm on my way down
-I'm on my way down and I don't remember when I jumped
-I can't believe it
-Baby, I can't believe it
-I can't believe it 'cause you got me falling first for once
-I'm on my, I'm on my
Confirmation of the downward trajectory in emotions
I'm on my way down now
-Then I went over
Describing a moment getting closer physically, leading to a kiss
To watch a movie sober
-Slowly moving closer
-Then kissing to the joker
-You got me
Feeling captivated even during a moment of intimacy
You got me
-You got me
-Crushing as we kissed away
-You couldn't see the inside
Not showing inner feelings but expressing through widened eyes
But you could see my eyes wide
-You were sipping fine wine
-While I was chugging moonshine
-You got me
Feeling captivated despite a perceived departure
You got me
-You got me
-Crushing as you slipped away
-It's kinda funny looking back
Humorous reflection on past situations
I'm on my way down
Reiterating the theme of falling without realizing it and questioning belief
I'm on my way down
-I'm on my way down and I never even knew I jumped
-Would you believe it?
-Baby, would you believe it?
-Would you believe it if I told you I've been falling for months?
-I'm on my way down
Continued disbelief at unexpectedly falling for someone
I'm on my way down
-I'm on my way down and I don't remember when I jumped
-I can't believe it
-Baby, I can't believe it
-I can't believe it 'cause you got me falling first for once
-I'm on my, I'm on my
Reaffirming the descent in emotions
I'm on my way down now
-(I'm on my way down)
Specifying the ongoing descent but the partner's presence
(I'm on my way down now)
-But you're right here with me now
-Come on, babe, are you ready
Asking the partner to join in the emotional descent
(Ready)
-(Ready)
-To jump and follow me down?
-I'll catch you if you just let me
Offering support if the partner chooses to follow
(Let me)
-(Let me)
-(Let me)
Reiterating the continuous descent without awareness
I'm on my way down
-I'm on my way down
-I'm on my way down and I never even knew I jumped
-Would you believe it?
Continued disbelief and questioning if the partner can fathom the falling
Baby, would you believe it?
-Would you believe it if I told you I've been falling for months?
-I'm on my way down
-I'm on my way down
-I'm on my way down and I don't remember when I jumped
-I can't believe it
Expressing astonishment at falling for someone unexpectedly
Baby, I can't believe it
-I can't believe it 'cause you got me falling first for once
-(I'm on my, I'm on my)
Reinforcing the ongoing emotional decline
(I'm on my way down now)
-(I'll catch you if you just let me)
-(I'm on my, I'm on my)
-(I'm on my way down now)
-I can't believe it
Expressing a realization of irreversible descent emotionally
Baby, I can't believe it
-I can't believe it but I know I'm never coming back up
