For this afternoon, here we have "Can't help falling inlove" written and sung by Elvis Presley. This song is a classical ballad that explores the concept of falling in love despite the societal expectation in matters of the heart.
The first verse gives prominence to the wise word of a "wise man" who caution against rushing into love, but the speaker then stated that they cannot help themselves but fall inlove with their significant other.
The second verse present the question whether it would be a sin to fall in love quickly. However, the speaker comes to the conclusion that some things in life are meant to be and maybe love could be one of it.
The chorus is a metaphor comparing the undeniability of the speaker's love to a river flowing towards the sea. The song ends with the speaker offering their hand and whole life to their love interest, expressing that they cannot help but fall in love with them.
Overall, "Can't help falling inlove" is about the uncontrollable and inevitable feeling that arises when someone fell in love, despite the social prejudices and societal expectations. It features the idea that sometimes, love just happens and it is indeed could get out of hand.
