Breathe

a friend i had once told me

such an unusual story

of a man who did breathe in

but never did breathe out

this tale reminds me of you

though a different shade of blue

you cannot always take and never give

this is not how to live



you gotta breathe in and out

you gotta spread a little love all around



though i don't know this for sure

just another knock at my door

a sprinkling of an inkling underneath an apple tree

i'll tell you when i find out

and show you what it is to breathe out

a natural progression lesson messing up your mind



you gotta breathe in and out

you gotta spread a little love all around

you gotta breathe in and out

you gotta spread a little love all around



i feel in you another way to be

i watch as you breathe over me i'm breathing



like a tale of jackanory

the end to this unusual story

is a breath upon a window pane so come on

step out of the rain



though i'd like to think this were true

you've become a deeper shade of blue

in my eyes this comes as no surprise

you've nothing left to give no



you gotta breathe in and out

you gotta spread a little love all around

you gotta breathe in and out

you gotta spread a little love all around



repeat and fade
