Every Breath

Boyce Avenue · All We Have Left [2010]

It sounds like this is nothing new and that it hasn't been for awhile

You wake up on the other side and you strain to force a smile

The fairytale inside your head has become your new best friend

But I can assure you, that I'll be there 'fore the story ends



'Cause when I needed a place to hang my heart

You were there to wear it from the start

And with every breath of me, you'll be the only light I see



I meet you at the finish line and our lifetime has barely started

The piece of mine I left behind, I pray you keep in your perfect garden

You waited on the minute hand and the countdown to last for days

But I'm here to tell you, it won't be long before I'm here to stay



'Cause when I needed a place to hang my heart

You were there to wear it from the start

And with every breath of me, you'll be the only light I see



The weightlessness and lack of rest

I will wait for you, I'm in over my head



Even when it's dark before the dawn

I will feel your grace and carry on

And with every breath of me, you'll be the only light I see



When I needed a place to hang my heart

You were there to wear it from the start

And with every breath of me, you'll be the only light I see



Even when it's dark before the dawn

I will feel your grace and carry on

And with every breath of me, you'll be the only light I see

The only light I see
