Lyrics

How do I breathe?

Yeah,

how do I breathe?

Feels so dif f’rent be ing here.

I was so used to be ing next to you.

Life for me is not the same, there’s no one to turn to.

Don’t know why I let it go too far, start ing o ver is so hard.

Seems like ev ’ry where I try to go, I keep think ing of you.

I just had a wake up call, wish ing that I nev er let you fall.

Ba by, you were not to blame at all when I’m the one who pushed you a way.

Ba by, if you knew I cared,

you’d have nev er went no where.

Girl, I should have been right there.

How do I breathe with out you here by (Dm7)my side?

How will I see when your love brought me to (C)the light?

Where will I go

when your heart’s where I lay (Dm7)my head?

When you’re not with me,

how do I breathe?

How do I breathe?

Girl, I’m los ing my mind.

Yes, I made a mis take.

Thought that you would be mine, guess the joke was on me.

I miss you so bad I can’t sleep.

I wish I knew where you could be.

An oth er dude is re plac ing me.

God, this can’t be hap pen ing!

I just had a wake up call,

I should have brought my (Abmaj7)love home,

but, ba by, I ain’t per fect, (Bbmaj7)you know.

The ground has got a (Abmaj7)tight hold.

Girl, come back to me, ’cause, (C)girl, you made it hard to breathe

when you’re not with me.

How do I breathe

with out you here by (Dm7)my side?

How will I see when your love brought me to (C)the light?

Where will I go

when your heart’s where I lay (Dm7)my head?

When you’re not with me,

how do I breathe?

How do I breathe

with out you here by (Dm7)my side?

How will I see when your love brought me to (C)the light?

Where will I go

when your heart’s where I lay (Dm7)my head?

When you’re not with me,

how do I breathe?

How do I breathe

How do I breathe?
