VERSE ONE:
i watch your chest rise up and back down
and all feels well right here right now
watching air fill up your lungs up so slow
you’re probably dreaming of a sun-drenched window
VERSE TWO:
holding you so close to my heart
such a gentle light in all this dark
kissing my nose just as you do
makes the cold seem much warmer when i’m with you
CHORUS
i am not stretching the truth
when i saw that i’m alive because of you
how many times did you find me
seizing up or bleeding
i would have been dead right now
i would have been dead right now
if you hadn’t been there
to save my from myself
VERSE THREE
hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of times
i should’ve been there to tell you goodnight
i just don’t want you to ever forget
how great my love for you is
