I'll Be Watching You 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

(every breath you take
every move you make
every bond you break)

I'll be watching you

(every single day
every word you say
every game you play)

I'll be watching you

(Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake)

I'll be watching you

(every single day
every word you say
every game you play)

I'll be watching you

(every breath you take
every move you make
every bond you break)

I'll be watching you

(every single day
every word you say
every game you play)

I'll be watching you

(Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake)

I'll be watching you

(every single day
every word you say
every game you play)

I'll be watching you

Cover art for I'll Be Watching You lyrics by Sting

i'm surprised no one commented on this.

My Opinion
Cover art for I'll Be Watching You lyrics by Sting

Considering that this was one of the most popular songs that the Police put out, it has a very creepy lyric. Sting himself has expressed surprise at the success of this song which was basically about a stalker, and much darker than the popular conception of it.

@PhilMarsh I think it was that era, we are more aware of stalking now. Now it is a very odd song.

@PhilMarsh It was a very dark song even at the time. Amazing that people have it a weddings.
