[Intro]
Go on, go on
Go on, go on
Go on, go on
[Verse 1]
The daylight's fading slowly
The time with you is standing still
I'm waiting for you only
The slightest touch and I feel weak
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I cannot lie
From you, I cannot hide
I'm losing will to try
Can't hide it, can't fight it
[Chorus]
So go on, go on
Come on, leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me
'Til I can't deny this loving feeling
Make me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Yeah, come on
[Verse 2]
And if there's no tomorrow
And all we have is here and now
I'm happy just to have you
You're all the love I need somehow
[Pre-Chorus 2]
It's like a dream
Although I'm not asleep
I never want to wake up
Don't lose it, don't leave it
[Chorus]
So go on, go on
Come on, leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me
'Til I can't deny this loving feeling
Make me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Yeah, come on
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Now I can't lie
From you I cannot hide
I've lost my will to try
Can't hide it, can't fight it
[Bridge]
So go on, go on
Go on, go on
Go on, go on
Go on, go on
Go on, go on
Go on
Leave me breathless
(Breathless)
[Chorus]
So go on, go on
Come on, leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me
Until I can't deny this loving feeling
Make me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Yeah, come on

[….] I was actually quite nervous to release a cover at all during the pandemic, because I didn’t know what the atmosphere was going to be like. Breathless is one of those beautiful songs that retains this m...
In the aforementioned CRACK Magazine profile, Polachek said:
That cover was originally produced with Danny L Harle for Charli XCX‘s Pop 2 afterparty. It was really impulsive. We were in New York, I was going to perform with her that night and Danny was in town. I was like, ‘I really want to cover t...
