[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
Like a
river flows
Surely
to the sea
Darling,
so it goes
Some
things are meant to be
[Verse 2]
Take
my hand, take my whole life, too
For I
can't help falling in love with you
[Chorus]
Like a
river flows
Surely
to the sea
Darling,
so it goes
Some
things are meant to be
[Outro]
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
"Can't Help Falling in Love"
is a song recorded by American singer Elvis Presley for the album Blue Hawaii (1961).
It was written by Hugo Peretti, Luigi Creatore, and George David Weiss and
published by Gladys Music, Inc. The melody is based on "Plaisir d'amour", a popular
French love song composed in 1784 by Jean-Paul-Égide Martini. The song was initially
written for a woman as "Can't Help Falling in Love with Him", which
explains the first and third line ending on "in" and "sin"
rather than words rhyming with "you".]
"Can't Help Falling in Love" was
featured in Presley's 1961 film Blue Hawaii. During the following four
decades, it has been recorded by numerous other artists, including Bob Dylan on his 1973 album Dylan, Tom Smothers, Swedish pop group A-Teens, and the British reggae group UB40,
whose 1993 version topped the U.S. and UK charts.

This was featured in the 1961 Elvis movie
Blue Hawaii. It was written by the songwriter George Weiss, who claimed that
neither the movie producers nor Elvis' associates liked the song demo, but Elvis
insisted on recording this song for the movie. Weiss, who died in 2010 at age
89, was a military bandleader in World War II.
This was Elvis' most popular and famous
"love song," but it was not sung to his love interest in Blue Hawaii
- It was sung to his grandmother on the occasion of her birthday. Elvis
presented her with a music box, which she opened and it played the song, which
Elvis then sang along with. >>
The soundtrack to Blue Hawaii hit #1 on the
US charts in the fall of 1961 and remained there for 20 weeks in a row, a
record that wasn't broken until 1977 by Fleetwood Mac's landmark album Rumours.
The melody is based on a French song called
"Plaisir D'Amour," which was penned in 1784 by a German with an
Italian name, Jean-Paul Egide-Martini.
Elvis ended most of his concerts with this
song.
