『Falling For You』

I, I'm really falling for you
I hate what you're putting me through
What have you done to me now?
I just can't sleep at night
My bed is wet
Don't know how
Will someone please turn out the light?

Falling For You

Semester's coming soon
So I would like to mention
I woke up in my room alone
You're always welcome
Next week my mum's away
So now my future's bright and
I'd ask to have you stay
If I wasn't so frightened

I, I'm really falling for you
I hate what you're putting me through
What have you done to me now?
I just can't sleep at night
My bed is wet
Don't know how
Will someone please turn out the light?

You showed up at my door
Just like in a teen movie
I said "are you the whore
I paid to come and fuck me?"
I guess she found it funny
When I said hello honey
The piercing in her belly
It turned my legs to jelly

I, I'm really falling for you
I hate what you're putting me through
What have you done to me now?
I just can't sleep at night
My bed is wet
Don't know how
Will someone please turn out the light?

Taking over my life
But I don't seem to mind
And there's no stopping you
Taking me on a ride

I'm, I'm really falling for you
I hate what you're putting me through
What have you done to me now
I just can't sleep at night
My bed is wet
Don't know how
Will someone please turn out the light?
Will someone please turn out the light?

I, I'm really falling for you
I hate what you're putting me through
What have you done to me now?
I just can't sleep at night
My bed is wet
Don't know how
Will someone please turn out the light?

Busted『Falling For You』

『Falling For You』はアルバム『A Present for You』の6曲目。
『A Present for You』は名曲揃いの名盤なのですが、ライブ等でもよく歌われて人気が高いのが『Air Hostess』『Crashed The Wedding』『Who's David』『She Wants To Be Me』『3am』の最初の5曲となっています。
そこから続くのがこの『Falling For You』です。
印象的なイントロと疾走感のある雰囲気がまた素晴らしい楽曲なのですが、歌詞もまた若者らしくていい感じです。
5曲の名曲に続く曲なだけにかなり印象に残っており、昔から割と好きな曲でした。

2023年のベストアルバムにはリメイクされたものが収録されました。
それなりに好きな曲だったので嬉しかったですし、原曲とあまり変わっていないのも良かったですね。
