Skeeter Davis - (I Can't Help You) I'm Falling Too

Музыка

Live performance of Skeeter Davis at the Pet Milk Grand Ole Opry in February 1962. Singing '(I Can't Help You) I'm Falling Too' which answers Hank Locklin with 'Please Help Me, I'm Falling'. This song has been a #2 hit on the country chart and a #39 hit on the pop chart.
Lyric:
You say that you're falling but what can I do
You want me to help you but I'm falling too
I know that we're wrong dear but when I'm with you
I can't help you darling cause I'm falling too
You belong to another who's arms have grown cold
But you must keep the vows dear although they're grown old
You can never be free dear though our love is thrue
I can't help you darling cause I'm falling too
[ piano ]
We could never be happy living in sin
Our love's a temptation but we just can't win
You ask me to help you but what can I do
I can't help you darling cause I'm falling too

    I was a teenager (1961) when Skeeter Davis became a famous country singer in my country (Indonesia, Jakarta)...and we all admired her angelic voice..she was also beautiful..! Those were the days that we called "good old days" !

    One of the best GIRL SINGERS in all of Country Music and this answer song to the Late Hank Locklin's PLEASE HELP ME I'M FALLING' proves it......she had this song on her album I'LL SING YOU A SONG AND HARMONIZE TOO....where she sung and harmonized to her own singing...fortunately I managed to get ahold of 2 of these same albums and feel so blessed having done so....but her Harmony was the best...I miss her may she R.I.P. Also this song with her harmony on it appeared on an ANSWER SONG Album too

    You live and learn ... I never knew about this follow up until tonight. Both songs ae just simple homely tunes, but they are effective and speak very clearly to the heart of anybody who has ever been in that situation. It's an impossible scenario: not wanting to hurt someone else who you love but who you are not in love with any more, yet knowing that you treasure that affection from a new flame who has rejuvenated you. If you can't have a lifetime of happiness is it wrong to have a few moments of happiness?
