About Falling in Love Again

"Falling in Love Again" is a 1977 song recorded by singer Marvin Gaye and issued on his 1978 album, Here, My Dear album. The song was another track on the personal album that did not discuss the demise of his first marriage. Instead of Anna Gaye, the song talked of the other woman in Marvin's life. Described in "You Can Leave, but It's Going to Cost You" as "that young girl", she was Janis Hunter, whom Gaye had married. In a solemn but still certain tone, he wanted to be sure that this time his love for Janis will be what he had always wanted. But as irony would have it, by the time of the album's release, Marvin and Janis' relationship was failing. By the end of the album's promotion, Janis had split from the singer after nearly two years as a married couple. They eventually divorced in February 1981. This song was the last song on Here, My Dear with a reprise from the album's "theme song", "When Did You Stop Loving Me, When Did I Stop Loving You", playing soon afterwards putting the album to a close for good.

In this life of happiness and sadness
When you've lost out on love and it all ends up in madness
And you say, "Love, please go away don't torture me night and day"
Then someone real, someone who feel comes in

I'm falling in love again, I'm falling in love again
Oh beautiful woman, she says she love me
Falling in love again, falling in love again, falling in love
Why

She's pretty, outside and in
She's so wonderful, I tried not to let my heart step in
But what to do, baby, what could I do?
When somebody real comes in
Someone who feel comes in

I'm falling in love again, I'm falling in love again
Oh beautiful woman, she says she love me
Falling in love again, falling in love again, falling in love

Music plays
I love you
