Suspended in the air I hear myself breathing Hanging by a thread My heart is barely beating I haven't fallen yet But I feel it comin' Tell me, would it be too much to ask If you break it to me gently? That I'm waking the next day Without you beside me And who I hold on to today Tomorrow will just be a memory And then I would look back at all of this And wonder why I stayed in here Just to watch you disappear So I breathe and let it go How do I breathe and let you go? Before it's too late I'll take a step away I know one word would make me go Rushing back to you So I'll just shut my eyes Forget that you were mine How do you go from making one your home And then just letting it all go? Let me take it in Before it sinks in Far beyond my reach Is the future you promised Now what I never even had I have every reason to miss And I don't know where I could find the strength to let you go When the only love I've come to know Packed his bags and left me alone You found another home So before it's too late I'll take a step away I know one word would make me go Rushing back to you I'll just shut my eyes Forget that you were mine How do you go from making one your home And then just letting it all go? Let me take it in Before it sinks in ♪ Before I let you go Let me hold you close One last time then I won't Before I let you go Let me hold you close One last time then I won't So before it's too late I'll take a step away I know one word would make me go Rushing back to you I'll just shut my eyes Forget that you were mine How do you go from making one your home And then just letting it all go? Let me take it in Before it sinks in
