Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh take it take it all away
Ooh ooh ooh ooh - ooh take my breath away - ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh you take my breath away

Look into my eyes and you'll see
I'm the only one
You've captured my love
Stolen my heart
Changed my life
Every time you make a move
You destroy my mind
And the way you touch
I lose control and shiver deep inside
You take my breath away

You can reduce me to tears
With a single sigh
(Please don't cry anymore)
Every breath that you take
Any sound that you make
Is a whisper in my ear
I could give up all my life for just one kiss
I would surely die
If you dismiss me from your love
You take my breath away

So please don't go
Don't leave me here all by myself
I get ever so lonely from time to time
I will find you
Anywhere you go, I'll be right behind you
Right until the ends of the Earth
I'll get no sleep till I find you to tell you
That you just take my breath away

I will find you
Anywhere you go
Right until the ends of the Earth
I'll get no sleep till I find you to
Tell you when I've found you -
I love you

Take my breath, take my breath
Take my breath, take my breath
Take my breath, take my breath
Take my breath, take my breath
Take my breath, take my breath
Take my breath, take my breath
Take my breath, take my breath
Take my breath, take my breath
Take my breath away.

    General Comment:I love this song. The sheer emotion that Freddie's voice evokes is simply stunning. This song describes love as it should be, but as it rarely is. Freddie was so fortunate to have experienced love like this. This kind of love is the love i feel for Freddie. "You can reduce me to tears with a single sigh" I love you Freddie!

    General Comment:A beautiful love song. You can feel the pain in his voice. We have all felt the emotion of a break up and the initial longing for things to go back to the way they were.

    General Comment:I wrote the lyrics to this song for my (at the time) husband-to-be. Eighteen years later, he still has the lyrics and we are still happily married =)

    General Comment:Some of these lyrics are wrong...

    "Look into my eyes and you'll see I'm a lonely one". It should be "I'm the only one", and after that "destroy".

    "is a wisper in my heart" should be, "Is a whisper in my ear".

    My favorite song by Queen. Sheer brilliance. I cry each time I hear it.
