Taking Love and Making Love
R.K. Cerman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My heart
Beating faster than ever before
Minds racing hands sweating up a storm
My composure I can't contain
I've never felt this way
You see through my poker face
Baby pump the brakes slow the pace because I'm falling fast
I don't know what to make of this but I'm praying it will last
I can't help but feel this way
It's hard to resist you when you're gone I miss you
Could this be love

This is the makings of love
These feelings I can never get enough
Being with you is all I think of
Stop everything
Pause time
So I can be with you

I feel faint whenever you get by my side
Loving so good you got me hypnotized
I lose control in every way
Don't think that I can maintain
You see through my poker face
Promise me that you'll stay
Baby never go away
All I need is your kiss and everything's ok
You are the only one I crave
Both you and I know now that this is love

This is the makings of love
These feelings I can never get enough
Being with you is all I think of
Stop everything
Pause time
So I can be with you

I've waited so long to be with you
That one lifetime just won't do
Twenty-four hours in a day
Three hundred sixty-five days in a year
Is not enough for me to love you

This is the makings of love
These feelings I can never get enough
Being with you is all I think of
Stop everything
Pause time
So I can be with you

This is the makings of love
These feelings I can never get enough
Being with you is all I think of
Stop everything
Pause time
So I can be with

This is the makings of love
These feelings I can never get enough
Being with you is all I think of
Stop everything




Pause time
So I can be with you

Lol. This made me super laugh! Ive had this conversation with my partner a couple of times. We ended up doing it in the shower, lol! Its really hard when it's shark week because its really hard to not get turned on by my partner's touch, and we're both very affectionate. Cuddling or laying on each other can easily turn sexual so we have to limit our touch when its shark week. We feel your pain, lol! Loved the video!
