It Only Hurts When I Breathe - Sarah Connor

I walk the streets you cross my way

I try to hide and turn my face away

You ask me how I feel

A love so real has just passed away

I lost it all before the end of the day

But don’t worry

Here’s what you can’t see

Everything’s alright with me

Everything’s right with me

It only hurts when I breathe

Oh, love can be so cruel

Gives hope and then destroys your dreams

It only hurts when I breathe

Now let me live my life

I’ve got to get you out of me

So if you cut out wounded flesh

Just be aware that there’s nothing left

Avoiding blood poisoning

I close my eyes and still I see

The happiness surrounding you and me

And this illusion it just makes sure that

Everything’s alright with me

Everything’s ok with me

Everything’s so fine you see

Yes everything’s right with me

It only hurts when I breathe

Oh, love can be so cruel

Gives hope and then destroys your dreams

It only hurts when I breathe

Now let me live my life

Because

(It only hurts when I breathe)

I can walk I can run

I can do my thing

(It only hurts when I breathe)

I can eat, I can sleep

I can dance and sing

(Oh uouh)

You see I’m strong

Don’t get me wrong

No single tear

Since you’ve been gone

I can breathe

It only hurts when I breathe

Oh, love can be so cruel

Gives hope and then destroys your dreams

It only hurts when I breathe

Now let me live my life

I’ve got to get you out of me

It only hurts when I breathe

Now let me live my life

I’ve got to face reality
