Lyrics

BREATHE IT ALL IN


I used to hold my breath and thought that time would stop
I used to close my eye to push away the dark
The more Iâ??ve been chasing time the faster it slips by
Donâ??t want to miss a precious moment of my life

The early bird may get the worm but I have seen
Itâ??s the second mouse to find the trap who gets the cheeseâ?¦


Crowds and crowds of people always rushing by
Donâ??t get in the way donâ??t look them in the eye
Theyâ??ve got their meetings and their deadlines and their coffee cups
They might see whatâ??s real if they would just look up

I donâ??t want to live my life that way
Pretty soon this moment will be yesterdayâ?¦

I can hardly believe whatâ??s happened to me
So please let me breathe it all in
I really need my space to be free so I can
Breathe it all in

I used to be afraid to stand out from the crowd
Now I stand here singing all my thoughts out loud
I get the feeling Iâ??ve been reeling all my line can hold
If it doesnâ??t snap Iâ??ll catch my pot of gold
Dark clouds may have lived above me yesterday, now thereâ??s a rainbow overhead to light my way

I can hardly believe whatâ??s happened to me
So please let me breathe it all in
I really need my space to be free so I can
Breathe it all in

I need to slow down and count my blessing for a moment
Iâ??ll be richer for it
For once in my life Iâ??ve found that place where I fit perfectly
Iâ??ll seize the opportunityâ?¦
