breAthless

Take a breath, I start to climb,
I think of you to pass the time
The road is long, I'm feeling weak,
Can barely find the strength to speak
We close our eyes to bring you close,
I close my ears and drown out the ghosts
Will I rise? Will I fall?
WIll my heart survive it all?
I'm breathless
Looking in your eyes I feel so
Weightless
Suddenly everything becomes clear
I think ahead, I have my doubts,
Shouldn't I have it figured out
Before I leap and take a chance?
Shouldn't I take a second glance?
Am I the man I need to be
So that you can get the best from me?
But all that changed on the dawn
Of the day that you were born
I'm breathless
Looking in your eyes I feel so
Weightless
Suddenly everything becomes so
Effortless
Now I know that love can feel so
Endless
Now you're here and right on time
Though my head may be weary and
Darkness may cloud the way
I have never seen so clearly as,
As clearly as I do today
Take a breath, I start to climb,
I think of you to pass the time
I hold you close in my arms
Until my heart just stops
