Breathe lyrics

Verse 1

You were my all

You were my everything

You needed me like water

You needed me to breathe

I gave you my heart

I gave you the best of me

But the closer I became

The less I could see

Chorus

Now it stares at me

Like my reflection

It's who I wanna be

Like who I was

Verse 2

I want to breathe again

I want to dream again

Want something beautiful

To make it all meaningful

I want to breathe

Verse 3

I know your pain

Kills me to break you

But I'm waking up

And the sky's still blue

Letting go

Doesn't always mean you'll fall

And my story book is better off with pages still unwritten

Verse 4

It stares at me

Like my reflection

Oh oh

Truth you'll see

Because like a blessing

Chorus

Now it stares at me

Like my reflection

It's who I wanna be

Like who I was

Verse 5

I want to breathe again

I want to dream again

Want something beautiful

To make it all meaningful

I want to dare to leave

Give me the chance to give

All that I have to life

And all that I am

Verse 6

And all of these

We were together

Our love was free

Nothing can measure

So the heart is ...

... unbearably without you

Verse 7

We lost ourselves

Drowned in illusion

And we couldn't see

'Coz we sank to the bottom

But I reached the surface

Before it could wash me away

Chorus

Now it stares at me

Like my reflection

It's who I wanna be

Like who I was

Verse 8

I want to breathe again

I want to dream again

Want something beautiful

To make it all meaningful

I want to dare to leave

Give me the chance to give

All that I have to life

And all that I am

Outro

All that I am

All...
