How can I, how can I breathe?
How can I breathe?
Yeah

I'm breakin` down a little
I`m throwin` in the towel
Need you to get me off the ground
You sayin` that it`s over
N we can`t be together
But i really need you around
Just stay, a minute,
N don`t you let go of me
You take my breath away (ohh)
I don`t wanna be left on my own like this
I`m breathless

[chorus]
Now I can't even breathe
breathe, breathe, breathe,
I gave you all of me,
but you won't let me breathe
breathe, breathe, breathe
you're killin' me softly
breathe breathe, breathe,
without you there is no me...
so how can I breathe?
you're all the air I need
so...let me breathe.

Was i supposed to know
You leavin` me alone
You knew that it would end this way
I`m lost without your lovin`
I`m missin` everythang
Now you`re so far away
Don`t waste, a minute
Just make your way home to me
Don`t take my breath away
Why do you wanna leave me on my own like this
I`m breathless

[chorus]

I don`t wanna be here no more
Ever since you walked out the door
You took away my heart
Your tearin` me apart
Cuz you were all i need
Your all that i`m waitin` for
So i`m waitin` for tomorrow
Until you come back to me
So you can let me breathe
(breathe... breathe... breathe)
I gave you all of me,
Let me breathe
(breathe... breathe... breathe)
You killin` me softly
let me breathe, breathe, breathe (12x)
