Breath from my lungs

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
