Song lyrics

Send "Every Breath You Take" ringtones to your cell

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

Since you've been 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 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)
Every move you make, every vow you break 
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake (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)

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)
Every move you make, every vow you break 
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake (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)

3 posts	Sting created this song because he met a guy who would stalk his ex wife. Thats why its always saying I'll be watching you because the man is a stalker. Pretty weird huh. And the original is so much better.

9 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal Ok time to clear up a couple of things 1. Sting wrote the song about being stalked and not because he found someone to stalk his wife 2. The P. Diddy and whoever version took the melody and that's it. None of the lines are the same, just the melody, sort of. There are some differences. Geez where do you guys get your info?

51 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This a great song no matter what. This is way better than P. Diddy's version. Actually they aren't even the same song but that has been said. And for all of you who are hating on this song, its probably cause its from the '80s and you don't want to be scene listening to music that your parents liked.
