Breathe Tonight Lyrics
David Cook
You broke when I just bent
You cried; I never meant to break you down
This time, did I steal the best … of you?
Can you breathe tonight
As the air is leaving you?
Scream tonight
Like the words are new to you?
Can we go back to the last time my arms could carry you?
Breathe tonight
You're alive
Lost; don't leave me in the dark alone
Shine a light
Cause you're the road that got me home
Cause I, I never knew that love was true
Did you?
Can you breathe tonight
As the air is leaving you?
Scream tonight
Like the words are new to you?
Can we go back to the last time my arms could carry you?
Breathe tonight
You're alive
You broke when I just bent
Goodbye, But only if you're over it
Can you breathe tonight
As the air is leaving you?
Scream tonight
Like the words are new to you?
Can we go back to the last time my arms could carry you?
Breathe tonight
You're alive
You're alive
You cried; I never meant to break you down
This time, did I steal the best … of you?
Can you breathe tonight
As the air is leaving you?
Scream tonight
Like the words are new to you?
Can we go back to the last time my arms could carry you?
Breathe tonight
You're alive
Lost; don't leave me in the dark alone
Shine a light
Cause you're the road that got me home
Cause I, I never knew that love was true
Did you?
Can you breathe tonight
As the air is leaving you?
Scream tonight
Like the words are new to you?
Can we go back to the last time my arms could carry you?
Breathe tonight
You're alive
You broke when I just bent
Goodbye, But only if you're over it
Can you breathe tonight
As the air is leaving you?
Scream tonight
Like the words are new to you?
Can we go back to the last time my arms could carry you?
Breathe tonight
You're alive
You're alive
