Cheek to Cheek
Dancing on Cloud Nine: Unveiling the Joyful Embrace in 'Cheek to Cheek'
Lyrics
Heaven, I'm in heaven
Expressing a state of bliss or euphoria.
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
Heartbeat intensifies, making speech difficult due to overwhelming joy.
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
Finding the happiness one is searching for.
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
Highlighting the joy experienced when dancing closely together.
Yes, heaven, I'm in heaven
Reiterating the blissful state in heaven.
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Everyday worries dissipate, akin to a fortunate winning streak for a gambler.
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
The cares vanish when dancing cheek to cheek.
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
Reaffirming the joyous experience of dancing closely together.
Oh I love to climb to mountain
Expressing love for conquering challenges, but not as thrilling as dancing closely.
And reach the highest peak
Metaphorically reaching the highest point, yet not as exciting as dancing cheek to cheek.
But it doesn't thrill me half as much
External achievements don't provide as much thrill as dancing closely.
As dancing cheek to cheek
Reiterating the immense joy derived from dancing cheek to cheek.
Oh I love to go out fishing
Expressing love for fishing but emphasizing it's not as enjoyable as dancing closely.
In a river or a creek
Preference for dancing cheek to cheek over fishing in a river or creek.
But I don't enjoy it half as much
Comparing the enjoyment of activities, favoring dancing closely.
As dancing cheek to cheek
Reiterating the preference for dancing cheek to cheek over other activities.
Now dance with me
An invitation to dance together.
I want my arms about you
Expressing a desire to have arms around the partner while dancing.
That charm about you
Highlighting the charm of the partner.
Will carry me through
Belief that the partner's charm will carry the speaker through the dance.
Yes, heaven, I'm in heaven
Reiteration of being in a heavenly state.
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
Heartbeat intensifies, making speech difficult, indicating overwhelming joy.
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
Finding the sought-after happiness when dancing closely.
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
Emphasizing the joy experienced when dancing cheek to cheek.
