it's how it feels when your body is relaxing and your brain releases your body from his control. i think you have a falling feeling because you're body is tired and you body needs rest.
that's why they say "Fall asleep"

Evolution can help you understand the origin of this. Consider a time when we where more akin to the apes. We slept in trees and as a consequence, needed to develop a natural "sleeping state" protection from the inevitable perils of our lofty slumbers. A jerk may have just given you time to hold on tight to a neighboring branch before you fell into something a little deeper than sleep.
