I've Just Seen a Face
Capturing Love's First Glimpse: I've Just Seen a Face
Lyrics
I've just seen a face,
I've just experienced a moment
I can't forget the time or place
I can't forget when and where it happened
Where we just met.
Describing the place where they just met
She's just the girl for me
Expressing a strong attraction to the girl
And I want all the world to see
Desire for the world to know about their connection
We've met, mm-mm-mm-m'mm-mm
Emphasizing the significance of the meeting with vocalizations
Had it been another day
Reflecting on the possibility of a different outcome on another day
I might have looked the other way
Acknowledging a potential lack of attention on another occasion
And I'd have never been aware.
Realizing awareness due to the current circumstances
But as it is I'll dream of her
Expressing the intention to dream about the girl
Tonight, di-di-di-di'n'di.
Adding musical vocalizations to convey a dreamy atmosphere
Falling, yes I am falling,
Describing the sensation of falling in love
And she keeps calling
Noting the girl's continuous influence and attraction
Me back again.
Emphasizing the recurring nature of the attraction
I have never known
Expressing a unique and intense emotional experience
The like of this, I've been alone
Highlighting a previous sense of loneliness
And I have missed things
Acknowledging missed opportunities and experiences
And kept out of sight
Choosing to remain hidden or unnoticed
But other girls were never quite
Comparing the current girl to others in the past
Like this, di-di-di-di'n'di.
Adding vocalizations to convey a dreamy atmosphere
Falling, yes I am falling,
Reiterating the feeling of falling in love
And she keeps calling
Stressing the girl's persistent influence
Me back again.
Highlighting the recurring nature of the attraction
Yeah!
An exclamation, possibly emphasizing a positive feeling
Bup-a-lup-bup!
Musical interlude
Falling, yes I am falling,
Repeating the theme of falling in love
And she keeps calling
Emphasizing the girl's persistent influence
Me back again.
Highlighting the recurring nature of the attraction
I've just seen a face,
Recalling the moment of meeting the girl
I can't forget the time or place
Emphasizing the unforgettable nature of the encounter
Where we just met.
Describing the place of the initial meeting
She's just the girl for me
Expressing strong feelings towards the girl
And I want all the world to see
Desire for the world to know about their connection
We've met, mm-mm-mm-di-di-di.
Adding vocalizations for emotional emphasis
Falling, yes I am falling,
Reiterating the feeling of falling in love
And she keeps calling
Stressing the girl's persistent influence
Me back again.
Highlighting the recurring nature of the attraction
Falling, yes I am falling,
Repeating the theme of falling in love
And she keeps calling
Emphasizing the girl's persistent influence
Me back again.
Highlighting the recurring nature of the attraction
Oh, falling, yes I am falling,
Continuing to express the sensation of falling in love
And she keeps calling
Stressing the girl's persistent influence
Me back again.
Highlighting the recurring nature of the attraction
