Wedding Song
Yeah Yeah Yeahs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm making history
With your name on my lips
The ages fall to bits
In flames I sleep soundly
With angels around me
I lay at your feet
Some kind of violent bliss
Led me to love like this
One thousand deaths my dear
I'd die without you here
In flames I sleep soundly
With angels around me
I lay at your feet
You're the breath that I breathe
You're the breath that I breathe
The breath that I breathe
Breath that I breathe
You're the breath that I breathe

With every breath I breathe
With every moment I live
I'm making history
I am contributing to the story of life
With your name on my lips
With thoughts of you always present
The ages fall to bits
The past becomes irrelevant as we live our present
In flames I sleep soundly
Even amidst chaos, I am at peace
With angels around me
In the presence of those who bring me comfort
I lay at your feet
I submit to your power and influence
You're the breath that I breathe
You are my life force
Some kind of violent bliss
An intense, wild form of happiness
Led me to love like this
Drove me to feel such deep affection
One thousand deaths my dear
I would endure countless hardships for you
I'd die without you here

Breath that I breathe
Vital force sustaining me
You're the breath that I breathe

Nadia
on "date with the night"
I got a date with the night
Burnin' out my finger
Gonna catch the kids dry
Gonna walk on water
Buyin' out the fight
We're sweatin' in the winter
Both thighs squeeze tight
Choke choke choke choke choke choke choke choke choke choke...
Don't tell me to fix her
Don't tell me to fix her
Just take a bite
No hangin' no picture
Flyin' out my sight
Droppin' brides at the altar
Both thighs squeeze tight
Choke choke choke choke choke choke choke choke choke choke...
I'll set you I'll set it off
I'll set you I'll set it off
I'll set you I'll set it off off
I'll set you I'll set it off
I'll set you I'll set it off
I'll set you I'll set it off
I'll set you I'll set it off off off
Buyin' out the fight
Gonna walk on water
Gonna catch the kids dry
Gonna bend my finger
Flyin' out my sight
We're sweatin' in the winter
Both thighs squeeze tight
Both thighs squeeze tight
