Every Breath You Take by The Police
"Every Breath You Take" is a song by English rock band The Police from their album Synchronicity written by Sting. The single was the biggest US and UK hit of 1983 and won Song of the Year and Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals at the 26th Annual Grammy Awards; The song ranked number 84 on the Rolling Stone list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time and is included in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll. It also ranked number 25 on Billboard's Hot 100 All-Time Top Songs.
From Genius Contributor: “Every Breath You Take” is, to this day, still perceived to be a love song. However, the lyrics are actually spoken from a character with sinister intent. During the time Sting wrote this song, he had just divorced his first wife, Frances Tomelty. While his intention may have been to write a sweet, emotional love song from the beginning, he was soon realizing that he was entering into a dark place that fought for control and surveillance.
Featured Lyrics:
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
