She Took My Breath Away
Gillan & Glover Lyrics

alone in a crowd
Despite being surrounded by people, he is all alone in his thoughts.

talking at him but looking at her much too loud
He is trying to have a conversation with someone else, but cannot help being distracted by the woman he is enamored with.

i could not think what to say
He is at a loss for words around this woman he finds captivating.

one word in my ear from her lips could lead me astray
Just a simple word from her could disrupt his thoughts and make him lose focus.

hello what's going on unanswered questions confusing my words which later i stumble upon
He is trying to make conversation, but the multitude of questions in his head make him stumble and fumble his words.

in a room painted green quite clearly she was not what she seemed but she was what she wanted to be
He realizes that the woman he is enamored with is not what she appeared to be, but that she is happy being who she is.

and now there was no doubt with eyes like a laser that sliced me in two her primitive signals upon me her secret was out
He finally recognizes the signals that she has been sending him, and the realization hits him like a laser beam.

well i know it's gonna pass she may be no more than a sigh in the night the rhythm of danger can't dance alone whatever the reason it never was mine
He knows that this infatuation will eventually fade away, and that the danger of it is that he cannot go through it alone.

i saw i felt my life was going too fast, ah, at last
He feels like his life is moving too fast to keep up with his emotions.

she took my breath away ... she took my soul she took my breath away ...
The woman he is enamored with has completely taken over his thoughts, his soul, and his breath.
