Every Breath You Take Lyrics

Every breath you take and every move you make
Every bond you break, every step you take, I'll be watching you
Every single day and every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay, I'll be watching you

Oh, can't you see you belong to me?
How my poor heart aches with every step you take

Every move you make, and every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake, I'll be watching you

Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace
I dream at night, I can only see your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
I keep crying, "Baby, baby, please"

Oh, can't you see you belong to me?
How my poor heart aches with every step you take

Every move you make and every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake, I'll be watching you
Every move you make, every step you take, I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you
Every breath you take, every move you make
Every bond you break, every step you take (I'll be watching you)
Every single day, every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay (I'll be watching you)
Every move you make, every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake (I'll be watching you)
Every single day, every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay (I'll be watching you)

Every breath you take, every move you make
Every bond you break, every step you take (I'll be watching you)
Every single day, every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay (I'll be watching you)
Every move you make, every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake (I'll be watching you)
Every single day, every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay (I'll be watching you)

What is the Meaning of Every Breath You Take?

In a haunting portrayal of love and obsession, The Police convey the intense surveillance and longing experienced by the narrator. The lyrics depict an individual who is incessantly monitoring their former lover's every action—each breath, movement, and word. The repeated refrain underscores a sense of possessiveness and deep emotional yearning. 🥀 The narrator's fixation is further emphasized by the emotions of loss and emptiness expressed after the departure of the beloved. Their heartache and inability to move on highlight the darker aspects of love—how it can morph into an all-consuming obsession when singular focus on an individual prevails. Through this, the song serves as a cautionary tale of the fine line between love and unhealthy fixation. 🔍
