Fall In Love
Fall In Love Lyrics
Heard you moved out to South Carolina
Just like you always said we would
Packed your bags in that old 4Runner
That I bought you when things were good
I'm glad to see the stop sign didn't hit ya
Bring you back to your senses
Oh, it waved you gone, goodbye
Yeah, it waved you gone, goodbye
[Verse 2]
I heard you found yourself a brand-new man
Put a rock on your finger and he vowed you a second chance
Built a house right by the coast
That ocean view is beautiful, but baby, I just want you to know
He don't know you like I did
Money talks, but I ain't buyin'
[Chorus]
'Cause love's a smoke ring wrapped around your finger
One second, it's a blessin', and the next, it's already gone
A broken heart, I'm a walkin' testimony
My confession is a lesson that I'm pourin' out in this song
Oh-woah-woah, oh-woah-woah
You don't wanna fall in love
Oh-woah-woah, oh-woah-woah
You don't wanna fall in love
I seen your mama walkin' out the county market
And I stopped to ask her how she's been
Said she's missin' ya and tried to go convincin' ya
Not to settle down with him
She ain't wrong, the whole town knows it
You had a bed of roses, but girl, you couldn't walk that line
You can act like you're doin' fine
[Chorus]
'Cause love's a smoke ring wrapped around your finger
One second, it's a blessin', and the next, it's already gone
A broken heart, I'm a walkin' testimony
My confession is a lesson that I'm pourin' out in this song
Oh-woah-woah, oh-woah-woah
You don't wanna fall in love
Oh-woah-woah, oh-woah-woah
You don't wanna fall in love
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
'Cause love's a smoke ring wrapped around your finger
One second, it's a blessin', and the next, it's already gone
A broken heart, I'm a walkin' testimony
My confession is a lesson that I'm pourin' out in this song
Oh-woah-woah, oh-woah-woah
You don't wanna fall in love
Oh-woah-woah, oh-woah-woah
You don't wanna fall in love
Oh-woah-woah, oh-woah-woah
You don't wanna fall in love
Oh-woah-woah, oh-woah-woah
Heard you moved out to South Carolina
Just like you always said we would
About
Bailey and a lady were together for a period of time until they split. She packed her bags and drove off in the truck Bailey bought her. She later found a man who married her and they moved down to South Carolina on the coast. Ironically Bailey and her were supposed to move there. Bailey believes she is crazy for leaving him and that she left because this man had more money. He expresses his feelings by describing love as a smoke ring around your finger. Essentially saying one second it is appreciated because it’s a blessing. Then, it disappears, just like smoke. He also says he is a walking testimony and his confession on how he feels is released into the song. He later sees this woman’s mother at a county market. After talking the mother tells Bailey she is trying to convince her that the man she is with is not the right one and she is a fool for leaving Bailey. Bailey goes on to say she couldn’t walk the line and she can keep acting like she is fine but in reality, she wants Bailey back. One key statement was “You don’t wanna fall in love”.

I see in the crowd, when I’m singing ‘Rock and a Hard Place’ and ‘Fall in Love’, people are
bawling their eyes out and crying and letting go of a lot of stuff in that moment. [It’s expressing] vulnerability in front of 20, 30,000 people. They’re crying, because they’re going through something. And if you don’t understand it, that’s kind of on you. But the tears, a lot of people will relate to that.
