Every Breath You Take
M.Y.M.P. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you

Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I'll be watching you

O can't you see
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches with every step you take

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you

Since you've gone I been lost without a trace
I dream at night I can only see your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
I keep crying baby please

Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake




Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of M.Y.M.P.'s "Every Breath You Take" tell a story of a person who is obsessively watching over someone they love. The repetition of the phrase "Every [fill in the blank] you [fill in the blank]" emphasizes the watchful eye of the singer. It's like they're monitoring every move, breath, and word of the person they love, and they won't stop until they get them back. The chorus "O can't you see, you belong to me, how my poor heart aches with every step you take" portrays the painful feeling of having someone you love slip away from you, but you can't do anything about it.


The verses show the depth of the singer's love and jealousy. They observe every little detail, every interaction, and every decision of the person they adore. Even after the person has gone, they can't erase them from their mind. The last part of the song hints at the possibility of the singer pleading for the person they love to come back, but it is unclear if they ever succeed or if the object of their obsession is aware of their feelings.
