You Take My Breath Away

Minnie Riperton

A tree, a rock, a cloud, a sky blue day
A bird in flight, the night, the milky way
Beta gammas, silk pajamas, Sunday mornings
You take my breath away
You take it away 

Hello, good-bye, a sign that I love you 
A runny nose, a rose, the ocean blue 
Children playing, people praying,; hallelujah 
You take my breath away 
You take it away 
 
 Sunny days, soft rain falling 
Crystal bells I love to hear ring, 
Summer days, blue birds calling 
Don't look now, but love's around to stay 

A tear, a smile, a laugh along the way 
The world at dawn, a song, the month of May 
Woody Herman, Ethel Merman, Stevie Wonder 
You take my breath away 
You take it away
