I wouldn't compliment myself for what I've become
Tell her I owe it to her
Tell her I owe it to her
I wouldn't praise myself for every good thing I've done
Tell her I owe it to her
Tell her I owe it to her
Tell her I owe it to every heartbeat
Tell her I owe it to every exhale
Tell her I owe it to, owe it to her
Hands upon my chest
Oh, won't you breathe life
Into these dead lungs
I keep under my coat
And keep life
Warm against the cold night
As our bodies grow old
I know when to give up and I know when to breathe
Believe me, I owe it to her
Tell her I owe it to her
Tell her I owe it to every heartbeat
Tell her I owe it to every inhale
Tell her I owe it to, owe it to her
Hands upon my chest
Oh, won't you breathe life
Into these dead lungs
I keep under my coat
And keep life
Warm against the cold night
As our bodies grow old
Oh, won't you breathe life
Into these dead lungs
I keep under my coat
And keep life
Warm against the cold night
As our bodies grow old
Take my silence as a warning
I will not deter your mourning
Oh, won't you breathe life
Into these dead lungs
I keep under my coat
And keep life
Warm against the cold night
As our bodies grow old
Oh, won't you breathe life
Into these dead lungs
I keep under my coat
And keep life
Warm against the cold night
As our bodies grow old
