Breathing Again

Here I am thousands of miles from home

And all I can think about is you

If only you knew

 

Watching the stars fly by at night

And the sun rise over the ocean in the morning

It's not the same all alone

 

I told myself I'd never love again

But choosing not to love is like choosing not to breathe

You have to let air in eventually

 

It all depends on how long you can hold your breath.
