I Can't Help Falling in Love with You Lesson

I CAN’T HELP FALLING IN LOVE WITH YOU

(words & music by George Weiss - Hugo Peretti - Luigi Creatore)
sung by Elvis Presley

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 be.
Take my hand. Take my whole life, too.
For 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 be.
Take 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.
