One, two, three, four
This is it, here I stand
I'm the light of the world
I'll feel grand
Got this love, I can feel
And I know, yes for sure
It is real
And it feels as though I've seen your face one thousand times
And you said you really know me too yourself
And I know that you have got addicted with you eyes
But you say you're gonna leave it for yourself
Oh
I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on baby just understand
This is it
I can say
I'm the light of your world
Run away
We can feel
This is real
Every time I'm in love that I feel
And I feel as though I've known you since a thousand years
And you tell me that you've seen my face before
And you said to me that you don't want me hanging around
Many times wanna do it here before
Oh yeah
I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on baby just understand
This is it
I can feel
I'm to light up the world
This is real
Feel my song
We can say
And I tell you can feel that way
And I feels as though I've known you for a thousand years
And you said you saw my face yourself
And you said want to go with you on a while
And I know that it's really for myself
Oh yeah
I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on please dear understand
I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on dear please understand
Oh yeah
I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
This is it, here I stand
I'm the light of the world
I'll feel grand
Got this love, I can feel
And I know, yes for sure
It is real
And it feels as though I've seen your face one thousand times
And you said you really know me too yourself
And I know that you have got addicted with you eyes
But you say you're gonna leave it for yourself
Oh
I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on baby just understand
This is it
I can say
I'm the light of your world
Run away
We can feel
This is real
Every time I'm in love that I feel
And I feel as though I've known you since a thousand years
And you tell me that you've seen my face before
And you said to me that you don't want me hanging around
Many times wanna do it here before
Oh yeah
I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on baby just understand
This is it
I can feel
I'm to light up the world
This is real
Feel my song
We can say
And I tell you can feel that way
And I feels as though I've known you for a thousand years
And you said you saw my face yourself
And you said want to go with you on a while
And I know that it's really for myself
Oh yeah

I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on please dear understand
I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan
I never thought that I would be your lover
Come on dear please understand
Oh yeah
I never heard a single word about you
Falling in love wasn't my plan

Has anyone considered the song could potentially be addressing the fans (particularly millions of women who wanted to be his wife)?
Some of the other songs on the posthumous album seem to perhaps flip-flop a bit on the subject of whether the idol-like admiration he received was legit or not, and we've heard that this was a big question / worry of his, I think. He was a very alienated-feeling man.
But I guess what I'm saying is, perhaps this can be about just the above, while MJ was in an optimistic mood.
How, musically, do you try to solve millions loving you; Obviously being with them all is out of the question.
Think about lines like "got this love i can feel / and i know yes for sure it is real." The chorus: "i never heard a single word about you / falling in love wasn't my plan."
We know MJ was full of love. Was he extending that concept to a metaphor of being the lover-in-name-only of all those looking to him as the 'light of the world'?
I guess it's a crackpot hypothesis & probably inaccurate since nobody else seems to be saying it.
In that first verse the correct lyric is: "And I know that you have got addicted with you eyes"
the following bridge is actually: "This is it Like I said I’m a light of your world Run away We can feel
This is real Every time I’m in love, yeah I feel"
the next one is actually: "This is it I can feel I’m the light of the world This is real Feel my song
we can say And I tell you feel that way"
Not his best, but certinly not his worst either.
A sweet and sentimental song that I think will fit perfect at the end credits of the movie.
It's sure to bring out a tear or two.
Great song, quite obviously about falling in love at first sight. I hope a lot more unreleased MJ songs are made available, I'm sick of the constant repackaging of MJ greatest hit cd's.
