Back to In My Love

Take a Breath

So what can I do when you're breathing down my neck
With your hot sticky breath and you're telling me what's right?
But what about what is wrong? In my eyes, it's not all that bad

So David loves Jonny, so what?
So Mary loves Jane, so what?
And what if I told you that I loved them all?
Would that make me a sinner or a sin in your eyes?
So what?

So what can I do when you tell me I'm wrong?
Would you like me to lie to you, or just to myself?
Was I born an outcast or made one by your eyes...
And your hot sticky breath
Breathing, breathing, breathing
Down my neck
So what can I do?

How are you going to punish me this time?
Shouldn't it be left up to me and my God?
And what if I don't have Faith in anthing - but myself, and the boy, and the girl I'm in love with
Then what will you do?

So you don't approve, so what?
So I won't conform, so what?
How can we go on living together, when I am a sin and a sinner in your eyes

So what can I do about your point of view
When you won't listen to mine, and I don't know how to get through
So maybe someday, you'll open your eyes and stop breathing...breathing...breathing
Your hot sticky breath
Your hot sticky breath down my neck.

And you'll notice I'm breathing...breathing...breathing
And my hot sticky breath is fogging the window where live

With the boy...

Or the girl...

I'm in love with...

So what?
