Breathe
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We're all strangers
Fighting in the streets
With no common ground
We're just strangers
Tryna find release
When there's none around
Then there's you
You don't feel that much a stranger
You stand out from all the crowds
I don't feel that much in danger
I was lost till I found you
Baby, baby, won't you please come rescue me?
I don't really wanna stay if you're not
All I know is that I need you, baby
Hold me close so I can finally breathe
We're all strangers
Fighting gravity, stuck here on the ground
We're just strangers
Tryna keep the peace
When there's none around
Then there's you
You're my little ray of sunshine
You are immortality
You make me forget about time
And how it's comin' for me, so
Baby, baby, won't you please come rescue me?
I don't really wanna stay if you're not
All I know is that I need you, baby
Hold me close so I can finally breathe
Finally breathe, finally breathe
Hold me close so I can finally
When you tell me that you love me, babe
You bring the Sun and take away my pain
And the anxiety is miles away
I didn't know that I could feel that way
I didn't know life was so beautiful till I held you
Oh, yeah
Your eyes make me feel like
I'm off floating on air
When you look at me
Fuck everything else but you, yeah
I don't wanna be there, so
Baby, baby, won't you please come rescue me?
I don't really wanna stay if you're not
All I know is that I need you, baby
Hold me close so I can finally
Hold me close so I can finally
Hold me close so I can finally
