Every Breath You Take Lyrics

[Verse: Andy, Marilyn]
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, every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay, I'll be watching you


[Chorus: Both]
Oh can't you see, you belong to me
How my poor heart aches with every step you take


[Post-Chorus: Both]
Every move you make and every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake, I'll be watching you


[Bridge: Andy, Marilyn and Both]
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

[Chorus: Andy, Marilyn]
Oh can't you see, you belong to me
Oh how my poor heart aches with every step you take

[Post-Chorus: Andy, Both]
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
Every move you make, every step you take, I'll be watching you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
