“Every Breath You Take” by the Police

Don’t let Puff Daddy ruin this for you. Now that “I’ll Be Missing You” is nearly two decades old (gulp), that steady, ceramic, arpeggiated riff is again property of the Police. Too many people mock the ‘80s as an age of excess, yet loads of classic singles from the era are studies in cool restraint (see: Phil Collins—no, honestly). It’s just that they spent a butt-ton of money on everything. So though Stewart Copeland could be a florid, flashy drummer, and though Sting was known to dash a few extra flicks on his grooves, “Every Breath” measures each note microscopically, as if arranged with OCD, which makes the stalking vibe that much subtly creepier. In short one of the greatest hits of the 80s


LYRICS 
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
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 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
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
I'll be watching you
I'll be watching you
I'll be watching you
Whoo, hoo
(Every game you play)
(Every night you stay) I'll be watching you
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

LYRICS  only dreamed that I would find A loving heart, an open mind to see the real me And I hoped that you would be the one A chance to talk, a chance to grow I'll take the risk, let my feelings flow I've found the words I need to say Suddenly you're seeing me just the way I am Suddenly you're hearing me So I'm talking just as fast as I can to you Suddenly every part of me needs to know every part of you Now I know that you are mine You bring me your love and peace of mind You see the real me and I know that you're the key Suddenly you're seeing me just the way I am Suddenly you're hearing me So I'm talking just as fast as I can to you Suddenly every part of me needs to know every part of you Suddenly you're seeing me just the way I am Suddenly you're hearing me So I'm talking just as fast as I can to you Suddenly, awkwardly You're all I want, all I need you to be Suddenly every part of me needs to know every part of you Just you,
