We were in between lovers At the peak of a sigh Hit the beach in December 'Cause we barely survived in the month of July And what I want to know is The very thing that you choose to ignore Why we go back again to a place when we know That we've already been there before Now the breeze all over me Breeze, let everything be Set it free And me, I will leave all the rest behind We had scars on our spirits And bruises that swelled like the sea We were gun-metal grey, but you say that's the shade That a heartache is just meant to be But what I want to know is Why at night when I climb into bed Instead of resting my mind, I'm rehearsing the lines That I tell myself I should've said And the breeze all over me Breeze, let everything be Set it free And me, I will leave all the rest behind It's night, I'm afraid, and the dark unfolds It's a fog and a rain that surrounds my soul What's the size and the weight of the kind of love It would take to repair what I'm so scared of Let them fall by the wayside You say, just leave them behind All those tough words are wrong, baby, I'm not that strong And the tenderness suits me just fine But what I want to know is Why I'm so quick to climb into their heads And pointedly stare, and then judge me from there When I could just dance by the sea in the breeze instead And the breeze all over me Breeze, let everything be Set it free And me, I will leave all the rest behind
