Time’s not on my side It’s running away like a thief in the night But the warmth of your touch And the smile in your eyes Is telling me that I should stand and fight
I’m battered and bruised And sometimes I’ll lose And I surely will hit the ground But if you’re there at my side And you don’t count me out I’m willing to go one more round
I’m holding my breath for you I trust in my heart Cos it keeps running to you I won’t let you fall If you give me your all Come on save me, and I’ll save you right back
I’m holding my breath Holding my breath Holding my breath for you I’m holding my breath Holding my breath Holding my breath for you
So much wisdom and so much grace Too much hurt for one small face Too many lessons in too short a time So much love that just wasn’t mine
Minutes to hours and days into years It’s taken so long but you’re finally here People will wonder just where can he be And when they ask you just tell them he’s holding his breath
I’m holding my breath for you I trust in my heart Cos it keeps running to you I won’t let you fall If you give me your all Come on save me, and I’ll save you right back
I’m holding my breath Holding my breath Holding my breath for you I’m holding my breath Holding my breath Holding my breath for you
