Breathe Lyrics by Erasure

Total Pop! The First 40 Hits

2005

[Verse 1: Andy Bell]
Twenty-seven times I paint the city in lights
Now I changed my mind
I was living fast now I'm running on empty

[Pre-Chorus: Andy Bell & Jill Walsh]
And I feel, yeah I feel
You're gonna go, let me go

[Chorus: Andy Bell & Jill Walsh]
Breathe, and I breathe
It's bitter without you I can't live without you
And I'm in love with you

[Verse 2: Andy Bell]
Stood the test of time
Though I treated you rough you were always kind
I let my head rule my heart now I'm feeling so lonely

[Pre-Chorus: Andy Bell & Jill Walsh]
And I feel it's the deal
You're letting me go gonna go

[Chorus: Andy Bell & Jill Walsh]
Breathe and I breathe
Hollow without you I can't live without you
And I'm in love with you

Breathe I believe
Empty without you I can't live without you
And I'm in love with you

[Interlude]

[Chorus: Andy Bell & Jill Walsh]
Breathe, and I breathe
It's bitter without you I can't live without you
And I'm in love with you

Breathe I believe
Empty without you I can't live without you
And I'm in love with you

Breathe I believe
I can't live without you I can't live with you
And I'm in love with you
