"Free Fallin" is the opening track from Tom Petty's 1989 solo album, Full Moon Fever. The song was written by Petty and his writing partner for the album, Jeff Lynne. The song was released as a single, and was a top 10 U.S. hit in January, 1990. It also topped the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.
Considered to be one of the more introspective songs in Petty's body of work, "Free Fallin'" uses a simple acoustic riff coupled with offbeat lyrics. The song has an easy, mid-tempo acoustic rock structure, and features Petty's signature vocal style.
Lyrics
The lyrics describe a relationship between a "good girl" and a "bad boy." The "good girl" loves Jesus and horses, while the "bad boy" breaks her heart and doesn't even miss her, though some of the later lyrics suggest that he has not gotten over her.

The part about the "Vampires" makes me think about incoming anti-aircraft or anti-ship missiles.

The part about "free-falling" could be about having to eject from that A-6 on 2/14/86 and being missing all that time.

So I guess I'll either get to home tomorrow, or I'll get bombed. Or both. This is usually one of those times someone starts shooting missiles at me.

There must be some reason to these thoughts [ , I think now having just awoken from sleep, ] I was having awhile back
The scene changes to some military office. A company officer, I think that would be considered a Major, wants to see an Admiral. The Major appears to have just come from a battle or something, he has mud on him and his uniform isn't really presentable. He is arriving after enduring 12 hours of being trapped in an overcrowded, dark bunker with a blistering, fierce mortar barrage from the enemy outside trying to break the bunker and then he is on a transport, some kind of windowless conveyance that is also overcrowded and hot and filled with the maddening and endless quietly blaring Muzac while the civilians around him are blathering on with moronic idiotic conversations that he can't help but overhear no matter how much he wants to tune them out and there is a communication panel where he wants to send a message to his family because he can't remember the last time he talked to any of them but some moron is doing something moronic on it.

Another lost minute, wasted in captivity. The captivity of lost privacy, lost thoughts, imprisoned by people I don't want to know or to know me. Lost thoughts, aggravating strangers taking my thoughts. It never ends, minute after minute, lost in captivity.

US Navy Commander Frank "Dooke" Camparelli - USS Independence CV 62 air squadron commander: I want you out of my squadron. You'll be transferred out at my convenience.
US Navy Lieutenant Jake "Cool Hand" Grafton - USS Independence CV 62 US Navy A-6 Intruder pilot: Wait a minute! Good men die, and all we care about is following the rules, huh?
US Navy Commander Frank "Dooke" Camparelli - USS Independence CV 62 air squadron commander: What are you looking for, Grafton? Revenge? Now, this is not the place for it. You're going to shake your fist at God and say, "Give me revenge?" Well, He ain't listening. You know what's going on back home. Bombs, riots, people spitting on soldiers in airports. The whole country is tearing itself apart. Is there anything in this pissant war worth that? Christ, all we really got is each other. I want you to think about that while we're out there this morning, Mr. Grafton.
