Probably because - while we sleep - our senses are not as alert as they are when we're awake. As you wake up - you're caught in a 'limbo state' - where you're not fully aware of your surroundings.

Why do you get this feeling that you wont wake up?

In the morning, when you are about to wake up, sometimes you have the feeling of a pile of bricks- not wanting to wake up or move. This is most likely caused by sleeping late the previous night: being tired. Prevent this "I don't want to wake up" feeling by sleeping earlier. If this does happen and you want to wake up, take a shower or wash your face with cool water to help.

What does it mean when you are falling in a dream and never hit the ground?

The dream of falling which effects you so much that you wake up means: That you are suffering from extreme insecurity during this period or sometime before you went to sleep. It could also happen due to an event that had a strong frustrating effect on you leaving you feeling helpless. Dreams of falling are very common as one drifts between the waking state and sleeping. Often the dreams represent a literal expression of "falling asleep." These early sleep cycle dreams have no other special meaning.
