Cheek To Cheek
Dancing into Bliss: Exploring the Euphoria of Cheek to Cheek
Lyrics
Heaven, Im in heaven
Expressing an elevated, joyful state, akin to being in paradise.
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
Heart is pounding with excitement, almost unable to articulate feelings.
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
Finding the joy and contentment one seeks.
When were out together dancing cheek to cheek
The pinnacle of happiness is achieved when dancing intimately together.
Heaven, Im in heaven
Reiteration of the blissful state experienced.
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Day-to-day worries dissipate during this time.
Seem to vanish like a gamblers lucky streak
Problems vanish like a fortunate winning streak for a gambler.
When were out together dancing (swinging) cheek to cheek
Happiness prevails when dancing or swinging cheek to cheek.
Oh I love to climb a mountain
Expressing love for conquering challenges, metaphorically climbing mountains.
And reach the highest peak
Attaining the highest point of joy.
But it doesnt thrill (boot) me half as much
Other thrills don't compare to the joy of dancing cheek to cheek.
As dancing cheek to cheek
Reiterating the unparalleled thrill of dancing in close embrace.
Oh I love to go out fishing
Enjoying outdoor activities like fishing, but they don't match the joy of dancing.
In a river or a creek
Specifically mentioning rivers or creeks in the context of the comparison.
But I dont enjoy it half as much
Outdoor pursuits don't bring as much enjoyment as dancing closely.
As dancing cheek to cheek
Reiteration of the preference for dancing cheek to cheek.
(come on and) dance with me
An invitation to dance together.
I want my arm(s) about you
Expressing a desire to be physically close during the dance.
That (those) charm(s) about you
Referring to the charming qualities of the dance partner.
Will carry me through...
Belief that the partner's charm will sustain and uplift.
(right up) to heaven, Im in heaven
Reiteration of the ecstatic state, suggesting a heavenly experience.
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
Heart continues to beat rapidly due to overwhelming joy.
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
Finding the sought-after happiness during the dance.
When were out together dancing, out together dancing (swinging)
Emphasizing the joy experienced when dancing or swinging cheek to cheek.
Out together dancing cheek to cheek
Reiterating the central theme of dancing closely together.
