The working title of this song was “Auntie Gin’s Theme”, named after Paul McCartney’s aunt who liked it. The song title seems to be an answer to the title of the previous; “Tell...
[Verse 1]
I've just seen a face, I can't forget the time or place
Where we just met, she's just the girl for me
And I want all the world to see we've met
Mmm-mmm-mmm-m'mmm-mmm
[Verse 2]
Had it been another day I might have looked the other way
And I'd have never been aware
But as it is I'll dream of her tonight
La-di-di-di'n'di
[Chorus]
Fallin', yes, I am fallin'
And she keeps callin' me back again
[Verse 3]
I have never known the like of this, I've been alone
And I have missed things and kept out of sight

Da-da-n'da-da'n'da
[Chorus]
Fallin', yes, I am fallin'
And she keeps callin' me back again
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Fallin', yes, I am fallin'
And she keeps callin' me back again
[Verse 4]
I've just seen a face, I can't forget the time or place
Where we just met, she's just the girl for me
And I want all the world to see we've met
Mmm-mmm-mmm-la-da-da
[Chorus]
Fallin', yes, I am fallin'
And she keeps callin' me back again
Fallin', yes, I am fallin'
And she keeps callin' me back again
[Outro]
Oh, fallin', yes, I am fallin'
And she keeps callin' me back again
