Description
*Real Awesome* Is a song by the English rock band the Police from their album Synchronicity (1983). Written by *Sting*…(Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner) was born at Sir G B Hunter Memorial Hospital in Wallsend, Northumberland, England,
*Sting* wrote the song in 1982 in the aftermath of his separation from *Frances Tomelty* and the beginning of his relationship with *Trudie Styler*. Their split was controversial. As The Independent reported in 2006, "The problem was, he was already married to actress *Frances Tomelty*, who just happened to be *Trudie's* best friend. *Sting* and *Frances* lived next door to *Trudie* in Bayswater, West London, for several years before the two of them became lovers. The affair was widely condemned."
To escape the public eye, *Sting* retreated to the Caribbean. He started writing the song at Ian Fleming's writing desk on the Goldeneye estate in Oracabessa, Jamaica.The lyrics are the words of a possessive lover who is watching "every breath you take; every move you make".
*Every breath you take
Every move you make
Every bond you break
Every step you take
I'll be watching you
Every single day
Every word you say
Every game you play
Every night you stay
I'll be watching you
Oh, can't you see
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take
Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
Since you've gone I've been lost without a trace
I dream at night I can only see your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
I keep crying baby, baby please
Oh, can't you see
You belong to me
How my poor heart aches
With every step you take
Every move you make
Every vow you break
Every smile you fake
Every claim you stake
I'll be watching you*
