Ever since I first found this website, I've been trying to put ino words what I think Free Fallin' means. But, now I think I have an idea. And I believe you can only truly understand what this song means when there's a real major crisis going on in your life. A loss of a loved one. A divorce/breakup. Or maybe a very bad argument with a close friend. But what the words seem to say to me, is that he had a great girl, and there was absolutely nothing wrong with her, but for some reason he just had to break it off. After he lost her I think she might have done something, either started going out with another guy, or killed herself, and now that she's out of his reach, with no way of getting her back he realizes how much he does love her, even though at first he didn't even miss her. I think that's why he feels like he's in free fall. That's kind of how you feel when somehting like that happens. It really feels like you've left the world because it's all you can think about, and things in this world don't really matter anymore. That's why he wants to write her name in the sky, he wants to do anything he can to get the girl he loves back.
