Breathless
The Corrs Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Go on, go on
Leave me breathless
Come on (come on)
Yeah, yeah

The daylight's fading slowly
But time with you is standing still
I'm waiting for you only
The slightest touch and I feel weak

I cannot lie
From you I cannot hide
And I'm losing the will to try
Can't hide it (can't hide it)
Can't fight it (can't fight it)

So go on, go on
Come on, leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me
Until I can't deny this
Loving feeling (loving feeling)
Make me long for your kiss
Go on (go on), go on (go on)
Yeah, come on, yeah

And if there's no tomorrow
And all we have is here and now
I'm happy just to have you
You're all the love I need somehow

It's like a dream
Although I'm not asleep
And I never want to wake up
Don't lose it (don't lose it)
Don't leave it (don't leave it)

So go on, go on
Come on, leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me
Until I can't deny this
Loving feeling
Make me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Yeah, come on (come on)

(Yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

And I can't lie
From you I cannot hide
And I've lost my will to try
Can't hide it (can't hide it)
Can't fight it (can't fight it)

So go on (go on), go on (go on)
Come on, leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me
Until I can't deny this
Loving feeling (loving feeling)
Make me long for your kiss

Go on (go on), go on (go on)
Come on, leave me breathless (leave me breathless)
Go on (go on), go on (go on)
Come on, leave me breathless (leave me breathless)
Go on (go on), go on (go on)
Come on, leave me breathless (leave me breathless)
Go on, go on

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to The Corrs' "Breathless" are a testament to the overpowering nature of love. The main protagonist in the song is desperately in love with someone and cannot resist their temptations. The song opens with the plea for the lover to keep tempting and teasing them until they can no longer deny the feelings they have. The daylight is fading, and time with the lover is standing still. The slightest touch is enough to make the singer feel weak, and they cannot lie or hide from their feelings any longer.


The chorus insists that the lover should go on, leave them breathless, and make them long for a kiss. There is also a sentiment of living in the moment as if there is no tomorrow, but if there is no tomorrow, the singer is happy to have the lover in that moment. It is like a dream that they do not want to wake up from. The bridge repeats the chorus and emphasizes that the singer has lost the will even to try and resist their lover's advances.


Overall, "Breathless" is a song about surrendering to love entirely, indulging in it without worry or restraint, and living in the moment.
