How Do I Breathe
Mario · Go! [2007]
How do I breathe, yeaaah
It feels so different being here
I was so used to being next to you
Life for me is not the same
Theres no one to talk to
I don't know why I let it go too far
Starting over its so hard
Seems like everywhere I try to go
I keep thinking of you
I just had a wake up call
I wish I never never let you fall
Baby you were not the blame at all
Remember when I pushed you away
Baby if you knew I cared
You'd have never went no where
That I should have been right there
How do I breathe
Without you here by my side
How will I see
When your love brought me to the light
Where do I go
When your heart's where I lay my head
When you're not with me
How do I breathe
How do I breathe
Girl I'm losing my mind
Yes I made a mistake
I thought that you would be mine
Guess the joke was on me
I miss ya so bad I can't sleep
I wish I knew where you could be
Another dude is replacin me
That this can't be happenin
I can't get over you, no
Baby I don't wanna let go
Girl you need to come home back to me
Cause girl you made it hard to me
Oooh when you're not with me
(Tell me how do I breathe baby) How do I breathe
Without you here by my side
How will I see
When your love brought me to the light
Where do I go
When your heart's where I lay my head (Where do I where do I go)
When you're not with me (Whooaa)
How do I breathe
How do I breathe (how do i breathe)
Without you here by my side
How will I see
When your love brought me to the light
(How will I see when you leave me baby)
Where do I go
When your heart's where I lay my head (Where do I go)
When you're not with me (You're not with me)
How do I breathe (How do I breathe)
How do I breathe (yeeaaeaah)
