Conwy (formerly known in English as Conway) is a walled market town and community in Conwy County Borough on the north coast of Wales. The town, which faces Deganwy across the River Conwy, formerly lay in Gwynedd and prior to that in Caernarfonshire. Conwy has a population of 14,208 (Including nearby Llandudno Junction and Deganwy). (The town itself has a population of around 4,000). and is a popular tourist destination on the north Wales coast. It is a place in Wales where the old Welsh language can still be heard in widespread, casual and official usage.
Conwy Castle and the town walls were built, on the instruction of Edward I of England, between 1283 and 1289, as part of his conquest of the principality of Wales. Conwy was the original site of Aberconwy Abbey, founded by Llywelyn the Great. Edward and his troops took over the abbey site and moved the monks down the Conwy valley to a new site at Maenan, establishing Maenan Abbey. The parish church still retains some parts of the original abbey church in the east and west walls. English settlers were given incentives to move to the walled garrison town, which for decades the Welsh were forbidden from entering.
Ohh...ohhh take it take it all away
ohh...ohhh take my breath away
ohh...ohhh you take my breath away
Look into my eyes and you'll see I'm the only one.
You've captured my love, stolen my heart,
changed my life.
Every time you make a move you destroy my mind.
And the way you touch I lose control and shiver deep inside.
You take my breath away
You can reduce me to tears with a single sigh
(please don't cry anymore)
every breath that you take, any sound that you make is a whisper in my ear
I could give up all my life for just one kiss
I would surly die, if you dismissed me from your love
You take my breath away
So please don't go
Don't leave me here all by myself
I get ever so lonely from time to time
I will find you anywhere you go
I'll be right behind you
right until the ends of the earth
I'll get no sleep till I find you
to tell you that you just take my breath away
I will find you anywhere you go...ohhh
right until the ends of the earth
I'll get no sleep till I find you
to tell you when I found you
I love you.
(Anymore)
