Cheek to Cheek
Dancing in Heavenly Bliss: Cheek to Cheek
Lyrics
Heaven, I'm in heaven
Expressing a state of extreme happiness or euphoria
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
Heart pounding with joy, making it difficult to speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
Finding the joy and contentment one is searching for
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
Describing the happiness experienced when dancing together
Heaven, I'm in heaven
Reiteration of the overwhelming joy being felt
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Cares and worries disappearing while dancing
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
Comparison of worries fading away to a lucky streak
When we're out together dancing (swinging) cheek to cheek
Emphasizing the joy of dancing together, possibly swinging
Oh I love to climb a mountain
Expressing a love for challenges and reaching heights
And reach the highest peak
Highlighting the thrill of dancing over other experiences
But it doesn't thrill (boot) me half as much
Comparing the thrill of dancing to other activities
As dancing cheek to cheek
Reaffirmation of the joy found in dancing cheek to cheek
Oh I love to go out fishing
Expressing enjoyment in outdoor activities like fishing
In a river or a creek
Acknowledging a lesser enjoyment compared to dancing
But I don't enjoy it half as much
Reiterating the preference for dancing over fishing
As dancing cheek to cheek
Stressing the unmatched joy of dancing together
(Come on and) Dance with me
Invitation to dance together
I want my arm(s) about you
Expressing a desire to have arms around the partner while dancing
That (Those) charm(s) about you
Referring to the partner's charms that add to the joy
Will carry me through
Belief that the partner's charms will provide strength and support
(Right up) To heaven, I'm in heaven
Reiteration of the ecstatic state of being in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
Heart continuing to beat rapidly due to overwhelming joy
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
Reaffirmation of finding sought-after happiness while dancing
When we're out together dancing, out together dancing (swinging)
Highlighting the shared joy of dancing together, possibly swinging
Out together dancing cheek to cheek
Emphasizing the continued happiness of dancing cheek to cheek
