Lyrics for One Breath Away
If I had a world to give If I had a life to live Would you come to me? Would you come to me? And if I had the time in hand Spelt out in grains of sand Would you be with me? Would you be with me? You see that everything I do Still leaves me lost and alone for you If I could find some time And a place to hide I could sit right down and free my mind One breath away One breath away And I know the past is dead and gone Wasted emotions carry on One breath away One breath away, my dear Girl, when you took me by the hand You touched the child inside the man And I was free Yes I was me But then love took a different turn And now the child begins to burn 'Cause I'm angry 'Cause I can feel You see that everything I do Still leaves me lost and alone for you And I was free And I was free If I could find some time And a place to hide I could sit right down and free my mind One breath away One breath away And I know the past is dead and gone Wasted emotions carry on One breath away One breath away, my dear Here comes the pressure And it's coming down hard My spirit is fading But I'm still gonna fight Here comes the pressure And it's coming down hard My spirit is fading But I'm still gonna fight If I could find some time And a place to hide I could sit right down and free my mind One breath away One breath away And I know the past is dead and gone Wasted emotions carry on One breath away One breath away, my dear One breath away And that's the hardest breath to take, my dear
