Cherish Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But still, I'm missing you
(but still, I'm missing you)
I said some things that I regret
But I'll make it up to you
Baby I can't breathe when you touch my body
When your heart beats it's like music to me
And I can't see my life without you
If I could make time stand still
Then I know we'd live this moment for ever
Can we stay right here, you don't have to go baby close that door I
I really hate missing you
I rather be kissing you
And I don't know what I would do,
If I couldn't make love to you
Over and over and over I wish
That I could live this moment in time
As of today I put my life completely in your arms
And if you should feel I could do more to please you
Then baby tell me how, oh, oh
Baby I can't breathe when you touch my body
When your heart beats it's like music to me
And I can't see my life without you
And baby it's all up to you
If I could make time stand still
Then I know we'd live this moment for ever
Can we stay right here, you don't have to go baby close that door I
I really hate missing you
I rather be kissing you
And I don't know what I would do,
If I couldn't make love to you
Over and over and over I wish
That I could live this moment in time
Time stand still (can time stand still)
Then I know we'd live this moment for ever (we'd live this moment for ever)
Can we stay right here (stay right here)
You don't have to go (you don't have to go) baby close that door I (close the door)
I really hate missing you
I rather be kissing you
And I don't know what I would do,
If I couldn't make love to you
Over and over and over I wish
That I could live this moment in time

The bridge further reveals the depth of the singer's commitment, willing to do anything to please their partner and make them happy. The song's overall message is one of love, vulnerability, and an intense desire to stop time and live in the present moment forever.

I know most times I'm far away
I'm aware that I'm often distant
But still, I'm missing you
Regardless, I miss you
But I'll make it up to you
I'll find ways to make it up to you
If I could make time stand still
If only I could pause time
Then I know we'd live this moment for ever
Then we could relish this moment for eternity
Can we stay right here, you don't have to go baby close that door I
Can we remain in this room, without any disturbances
And I don't know what I would do, If I couldn't make love to you
I can't imagine my life without being physically intimate with you
Over and over and over I wish, That I could live this moment in time
I yearn to relive this moment repeatedly
As of today I put my life completely in your arms
I entrust my life in your care, starting today
Then baby tell me how, oh, oh
Please communicate how to better please you
Time stand still (can time stand still)
Time, freeze (wishing for time to stop)
You don't have to go (you don't have to go) baby close that door I
Don't leave, shut the door
