Playing a request of a popular French love song composed in 1784.

Written By Shawn Havasi

Title: Can't Help Falling In Love
Composer: George David Weiss, Hugo Peretti, Luigi Creatore

This is a request of a song that was initially written from the perspective of a woman as "Can't Help Falling in Love with Him". The melody is based on "Plaisir d'amour", a popular French love song composed in 1784 by Jean-Paul-Égide Martini. It is a popular choice for couples as the song for the first dance at their wedding, and was a top of the charts song recorded by Elvis Presley. I hope you enjoy it.

Lyrics:
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

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be

Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be

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
