Berlin – Take My Breath Away lyrics

Berlin – Take My Breath Away lyrics

Watching every motion in my foolish lover's game
On this endless ocean finally lovers know no shame
Turning and returning to some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion as you turn around and say

Take my breath away
Take my breath away

Watching I keep waiting still anticipating love
Never hesitating to become the fated ones
Turning and returning to some secret place to hide
Watching in slow motion as you turn to me and say,

My Love,
Take my breath away

Through the hourglass I saw you, in time you slipped away
When the mirror crashed I called you, and turned to hear you say
If only for today I am unafraid

Take my breath away
Take my breath away

Watching every motion in this foolish lover's game
Haunted by the notion somewhere there's a love in flames
Turning and returning to some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion as you turn my way and say

Take my breath away,
My Love
Take my breath away
My Love
Take my breath away
Take my breath away

This song is about unrequited love. Two people that are attracted to each other but are not able to be together as a couple . When they see each other, each time , they take each other’s Breath Away. They find ways of expressing their feelings and interest to each other. They’ve had a few interactions or romantic encounters with each other , But they both know it has to stop there. The encounters are very brief, like sand passing through an hourglass. If only for today .. expresses how worth it and wonderful the feelings of the attraction is , even though it is fleeting due to barriers that keep them from taking it further. This song is about how a special love can have a deep meeting even if it is brief and cant fully blossom.

The meaning of "take my breath away" in this song has always meant for me "surprise and thrill me". The phrase "it took my breath away" is generally used in american colloquial english to mean "it astounded me", such as one's first sight of the grand canyon can "take one's breath away". In this song, the woman is waiting and longing for the man to surprise her and to thrill her by saying "i love you" or to just address her as "my love", but he seems not to have the courage to do that for even a day, and he seems to be slipping away from her. The song could also be interpreted to hint that he finally does so, but it could also be interpreted as being only in her hopeful imagination.
