Visions: Everytime we Touch

"Visions" will be a series showing how the music of Cascada (in discographic order, Everytime We Touch first, then Perfect Day; however different mixes will be considered together with the first mix that occurs.)

First the lyrics of the original mix of Everytime We Touch (which vary slightly from the Candlelight mix); instrumental periods are shown by "...". After the lyrics, the commentary on what it says will be given. For some songs, the lyrics are different for the FWL version. I'll explain when I get to one where the lyrics actually are different.

Every Time We Touch:

I still hear your voice when you sleep next to me
I still feel your touch in my dreams
Forgive me my weakness, but I don't know why
Without you it's hard to survive

'Cus everytime we touch, I get this feeling
Everytime we kiss, I swear I could fly
Can't you hear my heart beat fast
I want this to last
Need you by my side.

'Cus everytime we touch, I feel the static
Everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky
Can't you feel my heart beat so,
I can't let you go
Want you in my life

...

Your arms are my castle, your heart is my sky
They wipe away tears that I've cried
The good and the bad times, we've been through them all
You make me rise when I fall

'Cus everytime we touch, I get this feeling
Everytime we kiss, I swear I could fly
Can't you hear my heart beat fast
I want this to last
Need you by my side.

'Cus everytime we touch, I feel the static
Everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky
Can't you feel my heart beat so,
I can't let you go
Want you in my life

...

'Cus everytime we touch, I get this feeling
Everytime we kiss, I swear I could fly
Can't you hear my heart beat fast
I want this to last
Need you by my side.

This song was the original "Flying Romance" song, and the first part of the vision really significant to what is now Featherwing Love was the dramatic deployment of the characters wings when their lips came together. "Everytime we kiss, I swear I could fly." From February 2 to February 17, Honeymoon Dance was the only chapter. I did about six drawings for it before Rescue Glide appeared. I called it "Flying Romance". I changed the name to Featherwing Love near the end of February.

Everytime We Touch is sung by both Juubi and Haifun at parts thoughout the story, but the first time is in the テ (te) chapter near the exact middle of the timeline. In this chapter, Haifun also sings two lines from Maggie Reilly's original version. She is scared of what this new relationship is doing to her, and is about to learn the difference between "monster love" and "real love."

"A strange kind of magic, running through my brain
feel I'm in heaven, or going insane."

(30 April...didn't quite finish on the first round)

The Yanou Candlelight Mix fits a sequence I've designed, which runs from the wedding kiss through an embrace that doesn't end until they fall asleep that evening. Juubi and his twenty foot span wings keep things very modest. Trust me, the reception would be really boring anyway.

Everytime We Touch's original mix is what the Honeymoon Dance (which is when they wake up the next morning) is designed to.
