lyrics

Breathe
Last time I checked you and I could still breathe
Albeit, just a little bit
Last night I thought when you and I were just still
The quiet took us out onto the sea
I can see the waves are taking us
To where we don't know how to be
Crash and burn, could we burn again
Cause there's fire here

You know we're still breathing in
Baby, just breathe out
Try a little bit, sigh a little bit
Know that I won't quit you now
Never could I let go, this is what I breathe about
Take me by the hand and we start again
Know that I won't quit you now

How did we get here?
Awfully good as it is, some days I don't wanna wake
Some days I just wanna break
Are you doing okay? Have we spoken today?
One day runs into another

Real life ain't only ever sunny weather
Real strife reminds me that we need each other
And we stick together,
Cause being a lover's about still holding on when the night is over
What's a promise if it never get tested?
What's a victory if we never get bested?
Here we go, all love, no respite
Gotta keep believing we ain't even seen the best yet

You know we're still breathing in
Baby, just breathe out
Try a little bit, sigh a little bit
Know that I won't quit you now
Never could I let go, this is what I breathe about
Take me by the hand and we start again
Know that I won't quit you now

I'm holding on
It's more an just a dream, I'll live it
Holding on
Wherever we go, love be with us
And the light is near, cause the fire’s here

And when you look my way
I know I got a good thing
I know you're there, I can exhale
Cause you won't quit me

You know we're still breathing in
Baby, just breathe out
Try a little bit, sigh a little bit
Know that I won't quit you now
Never could I let go, this is what I breathe about
Take me by the hand and we start again
Know that I won't quit you now

Don't you ever let go
You know I'm gonna hold you down
You are my prize and you got my eyes
Know I won't quit you
No, I won't you
No, I won't quit you
