Rapture
Armin Van Buuren (Avicii Mix) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Felt everything around me move
Got nervous when you looked my way
But you knew all the words to say
Then your love slowly moved right in
All this time oh my love where you been
My love I want you so
Sugar you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
I'm mesmerized in every way
You keep me in a state of daze
You're kisses make my skin feel weak
I'm always melting in your heat
Then I soar like a bird in the wind
Oh I glide as I'm flying through heaven
Mi amore don't you know
My love I want you so
Sugar you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
Since we connect behind closed doors
Spark this fire even more
No telling where we will be next
Surrender to your rapture arrest
Lay your head, let the slumber float
Can't resist, that's why words were wrote
Mi amore don't you know
My love I want you so
Sugar you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet

The night I laid my eyes on you
The moment I first saw you
Felt everything around me move
It was as though the world shifted beneath my feet
Got nervous when you looked my way
I became anxious when you glanced in my direction
But you knew all the words to say
You were able to calm my nerves with your words
Then your love slowly moved right in
Gradually, your affection drew closer
All this time oh my love where you been
I wonder where you have been all this time
Mi amore don't you know
My love, don't you realize
My love I want you so
I desire your love intensely
Sugar you make my soul complete
You bring fulfillment to my soul
Rapture tastes so sweet
This feeling of intense pleasure is delightful
I'm mesmerized in every way
I am captivated by you from every angle
You keep me in a state of daze
I am constantly in a dreamlike state because of you
You're kisses make my skin feel weak
Your kisses are so powerful, they make me feel weak
I'm always melting in your heat
I am always overwhelmed by your passion
Then I soar like a bird in the wind
Afterward, I feel as though I am flying in the wind
Oh I glide as I'm flying through heaven
It feels like I am gliding through the heavens
Since we connect behind closed doors
Because of our intimate connection
Spark this fire even more
We ignite our passion even further
No telling where we will be next
It is uncertain where our passion will lead us
Surrender to your rapture arrest
I give in completely to our intense passion
Lay your head, let the slumber float
Rest your head and drift off to sleep
Can't resist, that's why words were wrote
I cannot resist you and that's why I write these words

Perfetto!

This is, probably, one of the best and most well-constructed Vocal Trance tracks of all-time! Everythings works so perfectly here! From that long hypnotic build-up to that glorious euphoric finale, wow! And it was released 20 years ago at this point! A clear proof of how good music always stands the test of time! Quite a phenomenal track this one, I must say!

I agree with every word! To me this track is Arminโs best work ever. Dark and dreamy, but my god it delivers in every way. Also, Iโve usually hated vocals in the genre but this is a great example of when it actually adds an insane layer to it.
Corinne Bourke
And that is for sure! One of my absolute favourites!

Needs remastering because the vinyl is shocking quality especially through pioneer gear
