Watching You
Samantha Fox Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nice and easy
Take it nice and slowly
Let's relax and just enjoy
Each other my baby
We've so little time to be
Watching you
Watching me
Let's break free
I can lie in your arms
Meditate away tension
You can carry away
Until all my senses melt
So, take it nice and easy
Climb the walls of my defences
So, take it nice and slowly
Oh, you know how to please me
I'll get used to missing you
Make the most of the moment
I'm afraid to let you go
Hold me with the motion
You'll be leaving me too soon
Watching you
Watching me
Let's break free...
So, take it nice and easy
Climb the walls of my defences
So, take it nice and slowly
Oh, you know how to please me
You'll be leaving me too soon
Watching you
Watching me
Let's break free my love
Watching you
Watching me
Let's break free
So, take it nice and easy
Climb the walls of my defences
So, take it nice and slowly
Oh, you know how to please me
Take it easy
Take it nice and slowly...
So, take it nice and easy
Climb the walls of my defences
So, take it nice and slowly
Oh, you know how to please me...
The song "Watching You" by Samantha Fox is a love song that encourages taking things slowly and enjoying each other's company. The song sets a relaxed tone which evokes intimacy between the two lovers in the song. The singer highlights how little time they have together and the importance of making the most of the moment. When together, they melt each other's senses and the singer encourages her lover to climb the walls of her defenses as they break free.
The line “I can lie in your arms, Meditate away tension" has a deeper interpretation. While physical relaxation is important to fully enjoy the moment together, the deeper meaning refers to a more comprehensive approach. It suggests that being in love and being loved by someone can be seen as a form of meditation that helps you minimize tension and provides a level of euphoria.
Another key message in the song is the bittersweet moment of knowing they will not be together forever. They both want to make the most of the time they have together, but this moment will ultimately end, and the pain of missing each other is not far away. However, they reassure each other with the sense that they will always have the memories they created.
Overall, "Watching You" is a song that highlights the beauty of intimacy, relaxation, and the importance of enjoying the time we have together, as we never know when it will end.
