[Verse 1]
You came in quiet
Like mist on the tide
And my chest went still
The whole room leaned aside
Your hands were a spell
Your steps, a soft spark
Even your shadow
Left a bright after-dark
[Pre-Chorus]
I couldn't speak
Could only stare
Like the air got thin
When you were there
One breath, one glance
And I was done
Standing in the hush
Of your electric sun
[Chorus]
You take my breath away
You take my breath away
Just by standing there
I forget the air
You take my breath away
You take my breath away
Your name on my tongue
And I'm already gone
[Verse 2]
Your skin had a scent
Like rain on stone
Sweet as green herbs
And honey left alone
I caught that fire
On the edge of you
And my whole world tilted
Like it knew, it knew
[Pre-Chorus]
I couldn't speak
Could only stare
Like the air got thin
When you were there
One breath, one glance
And I was done
Standing in the hush
Of your electric sun
[Chorus]
You take my breath away
You take my breath away
Just by standing there
I forget the air
You take my breath away
You take my breath away
Your name on my tongue
And I'm already gone
[Bridge]
Hold that power
Close to my skin
Let the world go dim
Let the hush begin
If I fall apart
Let me fall that way
In the pull of you
I'm not afraid
[Chorus]
You take my breath away
You take my breath away
Just by standing there
I forget the air
You take my breath away
You take my breath away
Your name on my tongue
And I'm already gone
