I do think that \"I will never let you fall\" is the meaning intended here, obviously more metaphorically than literally. The other options also express the concept of protection from harm.

I won't ever let you fall -
you can trust me.
There's a psychogame played where you let yourself fall, and the others catch you, showing you that you can trust them.

: the use of cadere is intended as a metaphor so you should go along with the metaphor in English too.

I'll hold you in my arms forever
La tua soluzione mi pare vada bene. La mia alternativa sarebbe "ti reggerò sempre/ti terrò sempre nelle mie braccia": ti terrò con me+ti proteggerò

This is obviously the lyrics of a song, the physical image is used from: 'ti terrò stretta e *non ti lascerò mai cadere"'(I'll hold you tightly and I won't ever let you fall) as a metaphor for feelings. In this case you should keep to the same physical imagery. I don't think it's supposed to be 'interpreted'
