"I've Just Seen a Face"

---&---

I was thinking about "I've Just Seen a Face" this morning, and - even though I haven't listened to it for almost two years - I remembered that the "falling" in "I think I'm falling" has a falling melody.  There's a melisma, so it's three syllables instead of two, and it's sung to the phrase F#, E, D.
