The night I laid my eyes on you
Got nervous when you looked my way
But you knew all the words to say
And your love slowly moved right in
All this time, oh my love, where you been
Mi amore
Don't you know
My love I want you so
Sugar
You make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
I'm mesmerised in every way
You keep me in a state of daze
Your kisses make my skin feel weak
Always suffering in your heat
Lift our souls like a bird in the wind
Oh I glide like 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
Mi amore
Don't you know
My love I want you so
Sugar
You make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet

The song "The Rapture" by DJ-Kicks (CD Series) is a love song about the immediate connection and attraction between two people. The lyrics describe the moment when the singer first met their lover and felt everything around them move, leading to a feeling of nervousness. However, the lover knew just what to say to ease the singer's nerves and their love "slowly moved right in." The singer is obviously deeply in love and mesmerized by their lover, feeling like they're in a trance or daze when they're together.
The chorus, with its repetition of "Mi amore, don't you know / My love I want you so / Sugar, you make my soul complete / Rapture tastes so sweet," reinforces the idea that the singer is absolutely smitten and completely consumed by their love. The repeated use of "la la la" throughout the song adds to the dreamlike quality and reinforces the idea of being lost in a haze of love.
Overall, "The Rapture" is a sweet and romantic love song, describing the all-encompassing feeling of being deeply in love with someone.

All the love that you're giving me
It helps me see what's right
All my life now you've given me
A chance to see your light
All the feeling I have for you
Let it come on through
When I cry you heal my pain
Help me come to you
On down the dead-end street
It's in my feet behind
Sun is shining right on my face
This is the place to find
When it's dark your tears are few
It's just me and you
Give me what I need to live
Help me come to you
Let me hear that song
On this journey you've given me
I'm walking off the time
Now you're walking right next to me
The mountains we will climb
All the feeling I have for you
Standing in your shoes
When I cry you heal my pain
Help me come unglued
Let me hear that song
How deep is your love
Oh, how deep is your love
Let me hear that song
How deep is your love
Oh, how deep is your love
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Really wonderful video. It's raw and real. How deep is God's love? He'll always be here and we'll always show up and dress up. Everything is temporary, but the friendships made... it's marvelous!
