I Feel the Earth Move
Love's Tremor: Embracing Passion's Earthquake
Lyrics
I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel a strong sensation as if the ground is shaking beneath me
I feel the sky tumbling down
I sense the sky collapsing or falling apart
I feel my heart start to trembling
My heart begins to shake or quiver
Whenever you're around
This emotional reaction occurs whenever you are in my presence
Ooh, baby, when I see your face
Expressing admiration; the sight of your face has a calming effect, like the gentle month of May
Mellow as the month of May
Addressing a loved one, expressing difficulty in coping with intense emotions
Oh, darling, I can't stand it
Feeling overwhelmed or unable to endure a particular situation
When you look at me that way
Expressing discomfort or emotional vulnerability when you gaze at me in a certain way
I feel the earth move under my feet
Reiteration of the intense feeling of the ground moving beneath
I feel the sky tumbling down
Reiteration of the sensation of the sky collapsing
I feel my heart start to trembling
Reiteration of the trembling or quivering of the heart
Whenever you're around
Reiteration that these sensations occur in your presence
Oh, darling, when you're near me
Describing the impact of the loved one being near and calling their name
And you tenderly call my name
Expressing the intense emotional response evoked when the name is tenderly called
I know that my emotions
Acknowledging that emotions are overwhelming and challenging to control
Are something I just can't tame
The emotions are powerful and cannot be restrained
I've just got to have you, baby
Expressing a strong desire to be with the loved one
I feel the earth move under my feet
Reiteration of the feeling of the ground moving beneath
I feel the sky tumbling down
Reiteration of the sensation of the sky collapsing
I feel the earth move under my feet
Repetition for emphasis on the feeling of the ground moving beneath
I feel the sky tumbling down
Repetition for emphasis on the sensation of the sky collapsing
I just lose control
Expressing a loss of control, particularly over emotions
Down to my very soul
The loss of control reaches deep into the soul
I get hot and cold all over
Experiencing fluctuations between intense emotions, feeling both hot and cold
I feel the earth move under my feet
Reiteration of the sensation of the ground moving beneath
I feel the sky tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down
Reiteration of the sensation of the sky collapsing, emphasized through repetition
