Lyrics
I quit my stalling
I have stopped delaying or hesitating.
Finally stopped sayin' wait now
No longer saying "wait now."
Feels like I'm falling from the Empire State I don't
It feels like I am falling from the Empire State, unsure of my destination in this freefall.
Know where I'll be when I freefall at this rate now
Uncertain about where I'll end up in this rapid descent.
Long as you fall with me
As long as you fall with me, the place we end up together must be great.
That place must be great
Expressing the positivity of sharing the experience of falling with someone.
Long as you fall with me
Reiterating the idea that the shared fall is a positive and fateful experience.
This must be fate
Suggesting that the shared fall is destined or meant to be.
It's been a while since I have held ya
It has been a while since I last held you.
Been a while since we have danced
It's been a while since we danced together.
The distance that separated
The distance that separated us has finally cleared, presenting an opportunity.
Has finally cleared so here's my chance
This is my chance to connect with you.
Let me hold you in my arms tonight
Expressing the desire to hold the person in arms during the night.
Dance with me and hold my heart real tight
Inviting the person to dance and hold the speaker's heart tightly.
You make me swoon oh yeah
You make me feel dizzy or overwhelmed with emotion.
I quit my stalling
Reiteration of stopping the delay or hesitation.
Finally stopped sayin' wait now
Repeating the idea of not saying "wait now."
Feels like I'm falling from the Empire State I don't
Reaffirming the feeling of falling from a significant height.
Know where I'll be when I freefall at this rate now
Still uncertain about the destination in the freefall.
Long as you fall with me
Positive affirmation of the shared fall experience.
That place must be great
Reiterating the idea that the shared fall leads to a great place.
Long as you fall with me
Emphasizing the belief that the shared fall is fateful.
This must be fate
Confirming the sense of destiny in the shared fall.
It's been a while since you put your fingers
It's been a while since you placed your fingers between mine.
Between mine where they belong
Describing the longing for the physical connection between fingers.
This feeling in my heart still lingers
The emotional impact of this connection lingers in the speaker's heart.
But this old soul's still going strong
Despite the passage of time, the speaker's soul remains resilient and enduring.
Let me hold ya in my arms tonight
Expressing the desire to hold the person again in arms.
Dance with me and hold my heart real tight
Inviting the person to dance and hold the speaker's heart tightly once more.
You make me swoon oh yeah
Reiterating the overwhelming feeling induced by the person.
I quit my stalling
Repeating the decision to stop delaying or hesitating.
Finally stopped sayin' wait now
Continuation of not saying "wait now."
Feels like I'm falling from the Empire State I don't
Reaffirming the sensation of falling from a great height.
Know where I'll be when I freefall at this rate now
Uncertain about the destination in the ongoing freefall.
Long as you fall with me
Positive affirmation of the shared fall experience.
That place must be great
Reiteration of the belief that the shared fall leads to a great place.
Long as you fall with me
Emphasizing the sense of fate in the shared fall.
This must be
Reaffirming the idea that the shared fall is destined.
I quit my stalling
Repeating the decision to stop delaying or hesitating.
Finally stopped sayin' wait now
Continuation of not saying "wait now."
Feels like I'm falling from the Empire State I don't
Reaffirmation of the feeling of falling from a significant height.
Know where I'll be when I freefall at this rate now
Uncertain about the destination in the ongoing freefall.
Long as you fall with me
Positive affirmation of the shared fall experience.
