YOU TAKE MY BREATH AWAY

Ever which way you take my breath away;

Even when I sense but a whiff of you

The flickering candles dance and sway

And you take my breath away

Clouds of need linger, cloaking the desires

That remain flared in their depths

And as liquid dew glistening in the fires

You simply take my breath away

I am afraid to look anyone in the eyes

For it seems as if my secret love is there

Sparkling bright, for all to see as it does arise

As you quietly take my breath away

Tethering on the edge of a song soft and wild

Hovering flirtatiously to beguile

I reel and rock, lost all day in a tender smile

And let you take my breath away

A secret I find so very hard to keep

For it glistens there on my countenance

With a glow illuminating me so bright and deep

For my love, you take my breath away
