I gave you the breath from my lungs
When I was only a child
As I held back sobs
To make you smile
The breath from my lungs
I gave to a girl
Chasing her, before she reached the street,
I caught my precious pearl
The breath from my lungs
To you I gave freely
A thousand hours spent laughing
Under a star speckled ceiling
The breath from my lungs
I stole on that day
Since I didn't think it was needed anyway
The breath from my lungs
To the world I have given
Cause my story isn't over
I've made my decision
The breath from my lungs
To my self I will give
This life is mine
And it I will live
