Italian singer Andrea Bocelli has recently become even more well-known thanks to his “Music for Hope” concert on Easter Sunday this year, which was streamed by millions world-wide. Since then, I have been introduced to an additional song of his called “Fall On Me,” which was released in 2018 and features his son Matteo.

The song is a dialogue between a father and his son who is struggling to find his purpose. I relate to this song on a deeply spiritual level and felt inspired to share why on this week’s episode. I hope it resonates with you in the same way.

This episode originated as a YouTube video here:

See below for the lyrics to “Fall On Me” (in English):

I thought sooner or later the lights up above

Would come down in circles and guide me to love

But I don't know what's right for me

I cannot see straight

I've been here too long and I don't wanna wait for it

Fly like a cannonball straight to my soul

Tear me to pieces and make me feel whole

I'm willing to fight for it

And carry this weight

But with every step, I keep questioning what is true

Fall on me

With open arms

Fall on me

From where you are

Fall on me

With all your light

With all your light

With all your light

Soon you will find what your heart wants to know

Don't give up hope for I know you are close

And all you have ever dreamed, wished you could ever be

Is waiting to find you wherever you go

Believe in yourself every step that you take

Know I am smiling with pride every day

My love will forever be stronger than stone

So don't be afraid you are never alone

Fall on me

With open arms

Fall on me

From where you are

Fall on me

With all your light

With all your light

With all your light

I close my eyes and I'm seeing you everywhere

I step outside, it's like I'm breathing you in the air

I can feel you are there

Fall on me

With open arms

Fall on me

From where you are

Fall on me

With all your light

With all your light

With all your light
