Lyrics

Breathe I hear the sound of desperation knocking at my door Seems I’m never satisfied and always keeping score The walls are closing in on me, somewhere in my mind Driven now to make my mark, I’m running out of time Someday I’ll learn to breathe I’ll stop and smell the flowers and cure what’s ailing me I’m gonna take the time to sit and watch the setting sun That’s all fine but first I’ve got to breathe When I was a young girl and time was on my side I wouldn’t bow to anyone, I had my foolish pride But as I’m growing older I’m making my own luck Working hard to change my ways before I self destruct Someday I’ll learn to breathe I’ll stop and smell the roses and cure what’s ailing me I’m gonna sit and take the time to watch the setting sun That’s alright but first I’ve gotta breathe If I could go back twenty years and get to see The jaded girl I was and have a talk with me I’d tell her life’s too short to hang on to the past Just do the best you can, don’t live your life so fast SOLO That’s alright but first I want to breathe Copyright 2010 Rockola Music Co (BMI) Words & Music: John Keith, Bob Kinney, David Caron, LeeAnn Christopherson, Lindsey Spight (All BMI)
