Holding My Breath - Susanna Hoffs

Take a minute, a minute to breathe

Oh I’m trying to see what you see

You’re always running in place

Looking down

Heavy thoughts can always recede

But you’re stuck inside reprise

And the truth is right there, but you’re looking past

Think it isn’t fair but don’t think so fast

Come to me

I know we’re losing time

Let me take the weight from your mind

Come to me

I know you’re bruised

And it’s harder all the time to do your best

I keep holding my breath

I’m trying to be what you need

You only hear your own voice

Caught in the sound

Open up to me and we’ll turn it around

Come to me

I know you’re bruised

And it’s harder all the time to do your best

I keep holding my breath

Come to me

I know we’re losing time

Let me take the weight from your mind

You always say it’s raining

Don’t let it chill you to the bone

And if it’s cold out there

Come on inside and make my house your home

Come to me

I know we’re losing time

Let me take the weight from your mind

Come to me

I know you’re bruised

And it’s harder all the time to do your best

I keep holding my breath

I keep holding my breath

I keep holding my breath
