You Make Me Breathe


I never knew how much you could mean to me
Until the moment you saw how untrue I could be
I never meant to cause you sorrow
Never meant to cause you any pain
But with all the best intentions
I can't promise I won't do it again.


I don't know what it is that drives me
to make me want to throw it all away
Cos you're really very precious 
and I do so dearly want you to stay.
It gets harder all the time to be away from you
And I want to work it out so you can grow to trust me too
Like I trust you.


Time is not the healer I was hoping he would be
And I'm still tender and bruised, but I want you to touch me
Cos there's a healing in your touch
and you're the one I need to be with
I want to give myself to you, give you all I have to give
You make me live
You make me breathe
You make me breathe.
