Take my Breath away
Claudia Rezende Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In my foolish lover's game
On this endless ocean
Finally lovers know no shame
Turning and returning
To some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion
As you turn around and say
Take my breath away
Watching I keep waiting
Still anticipating love
Never hesitating to become the fated ones
Turning and returning
To some secret place to hide
Watching in slow motion
As you turn to me and say
Take my breath away
Through the hourglass I saw you
In time you slipped away
When the mirror crashed I called you
And turned to hear you say
If only for today
I am unafraid
Take my breath away
Take my breath away
Watching every motion
In this foolish lover's game
Haunted by the notion
Somewhere there's a love in flames
Turning and returning
To some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion
As you turn my way and say
Take my breath away
Take my breath away
Take my breath away
Take my breath away

Watching every motion
Observing every move you make
In my foolish lover's game
In this game of love where I act foolishly
On this endless ocean
In this vast and never-ending sea of love
Finally lovers know no shame
As lovers, we are unashamedly open about our love
Turning and returning
Going back and forth
To some secret place inside
Going to a private and hidden place within ourselves
Watching in slow motion
Observing in a detailed and slow manner
As you turn around and say
As you spin around and utter
Take my breath away
That you take my breath away with your words and actions
Watching I keep waiting
As I watch and wait patiently
Still anticipating love
Expecting and hoping for love to come my way
Never hesitating to become the fated ones
Never doubting or delaying our destined love
Through the hourglass I saw you
I saw you through time like sand slipping through an hourglass
In time you slipped away
Eventually, you slipped out of my grasp
When the mirror crashed I called you
When my world shattered, I called out to you
And turned to hear you say
Then I turned to listen to you say
If only for today
Even if it is just for today
I am unafraid
I have no fear
Watching every motion
Observing every move you make
In this foolish lover's game
In this game of love where I act foolishly
Haunted by the notion
Disturbed by the belief
Somewhere there's a love in flames
That somewhere, love is passionate and aflame
Turning and returning
Going back and forth
To some secret place inside
Going to a private and hidden place within ourselves
Watching in slow motion
Observing in a detailed and slow manner
As you turn my way and say
As you spin towards me and utter
Take my breath away
That you take my breath away with your words and actions
Take my breath away
That you take my breath away with your words and actions
Take my breath away
That you take my breath away with your words and actions
Take my breath away
That you take my breath away with your words and actions
