Story Behind The Song
I wanted to capture the rush of falling in love with this song. Lots of word play and paradoxes here. I truly felt this way when I fell in love with my wife -- she won the chess match yet somehow I ended up the ultimate winner because I stole her heart in the end.
Song Description
Do I look okay? Is my hair right? Falling In Love can be a stressful experience when it hits hard as is the case with the victim of this song. All seems lost and hopeless and he feels as though he has lost a battle only to be taken captive by the one he loves.

Lyrics
Falling For You
Michael Lewis
How do I look, how do I feel
Should I hide or should I reveal
This moment of truth, emotional high
If I'm happy why do I want to cry?
Would you mind if I just stare down at my shoes
Mumble a word or two and confess to the truth
I'm falling for you
I'm falling in love
When I think it's only you I'm thinking of
I fell for your glance
Do you care if I stare
If this is a game it's just not fair
You've already captured every piece of me
I have no choice but surrender my king to your queen
I'm falling for you
I'm falling for you
Beside myself, right next to you
Trying to pretend I'm hiding the truth
I'm not paralyzed, just holding still
It's not fear it's more like skill
What makes you think that I'm falling apart
It could be the sky, the walls or this kingdom in my heart
I'm falling for you
I'm falling in love
When I think it's only you I'm thinking of
I fell for your glance
Do you care if I stare
If this is a game it's just not fair
You've already captured every piece of me
I have no choice but surrender my king to your queen
I'm falling for you
I'm falling for you
(Bridge)
I can't keep fighting this gravity
When the reality, is only a formality
falling for you
in love
When I think it's only you I'm thinking of
I fell for your glance
Do you care if I stare
If this is a game it's just not fair
You're systematically taking down every piece of me
Hands down, No question, you won your victory,
You are my queen, what an irony
I became your king. You fell for me, you fell for me, yea
Falling For You
I'm Falling For you
