You Make Me Breathe

(album: Masque - 1992)

I never knew how much you could mean to me
Until the moment you saw how untrue I could be
I never meant to cause you sorrow
Never meant to cause you any pain
But with all the best intentions
I can't promise I won't do it again

I don't know what it is that drives me to make me want to throw it all away
'Cause you're really very precious, and I do so dearly want you to say
It gets harder all the time, to be away from you
And I want to work it out, so you can grow to trust me too
Like I trust you

Time is not the healer, I was hoping he would be
And I'm still tender and bruised, but I want you to touch me
'Cause there's a healing in your touch
And you're the one I need to be with
I want to give myself to you, give you all I have to give
You make me live
You make me breathe
You make me breathe
