[Verse 1]
I could feel
It coming from a mile away
When I opened up the door
I saw everything that I've been waiting for, hey
Close your eyes
I don't care what other people say
Here underneath the stars
Now Jupiter and Mars don't seem so far away

[Chorus]
I want you to know
You take my breath away
And it's been that way right from the start
I didn't know how to tell you
That I want to love you
With every beat of my heart
With every beat of my heart

[Verse 2]
Take my hand
Don't be afraid, don't go, I want you to say
Just relax your mind
I promise that tomorrow will be just like today

[Chorus]
I want you to know
You take my breath away
And it's been that way right from the start
I didn't know how to tell you
That I want to love you
With every beat of my heart
With every beat of my heart

With every beat of my heart

I said I want you to know
You take my breath away
And it's been that way right from the start
I didn't know how to tell you
That I want to love you
With every beat of my heart
With every beat of my heart

I said I want you to know
You take my breath away
And it's been that way right from the start
I didn't know how to tell you
That I want to love you
With every beat of my heart
With every beat of my heart

[Outro]
With every beat of my heart

With every beat of my heart
