I need to take a look round
till I understand what's the good I've found
I need to, just as you like it alright
and I can hear you talking aloud
in the voice I've grown so accustomed to
I can hear you, just as you like it alright
are you feeling alone, are you lonely
there's a place in my arms for you only
you're holding the beat
that my heart keeps missing every day

CHORUS
You really take my breath away

This fever can burn you alive
if you lose your feet or the will to survive
this fever can burn you alive now alright
unaware of mistakes you are making
I'm temporarily here for the taking
competition is hot
and the odds get thinner every day

CHORUS
you really take my breath away

Apart from the vast complications
we're both aware of the list of temptations
too bad that we could not trust
in each others feelings every day
