Breathe

A friend I had once told me

Such an unusual story

Of a man who did breathe in

But never did breathe out

This tale reminds me of you

Though a different shade of blue

You can't always take and never give

This is not how to live

You gotta breathe in and out

You gotta spread a little love all around

Though I don't know this for sure

Just another knock at my door

A sprinkling of an inkling underneath an apple tree

I'll tell you when I find out

And show you what it is to breathe out

A natural progression lesson messing up your mind

You gotta breathe in and out

You gotta spread a little love all around

You gotta breathe in and out

You gotta spread a little love all around

I feel in you another way to be

I watch as you breathe over me I'm breathing

Like a tale on jackanory

The end to this unusual story

Is a breath upon a window pane so come on

Step out of the rain

Though I'd like to think this was true

You've become a deeper shade of blue

In my eyes this comes as no surprise

You've got nothing left to give no

You gotta breathe in and out

You gotta spread a little love all around

You gotta breathe in and out

You gotta spread a little love all around
