Breathe You In

I am undone
A little rough around the edges
Hearing stories of the hours past
And the hour glass we race
The one I tried to chase

We talk too much
A million words meaning nothing at all
Telling stories of nothing real
And it’s never how we feel
They say time is how we heal

(Chorus)
If I can’t see you
I can’t breathe you in, no
And if I do
I’d never leave again
Oh, again

I love the concrete
It’s my city grass beneath my feet
And walks with strangers
Hundreds of years my senior

It’s not that I can’t relate
It’s just the little things that make me hate
The age I am and the way we are
And it all comes back too…

(Chorus)
If I can’t see you
I can’t breathe you in, no
And if I do
I’d never leave again

If I can’t see you
No, I can’t breathe you in
And if I do
I’ll never leave again
Oh, again

If I breathe you in
