Artist：Michelle Branch
Song：Breathe

I've been driving for an hour
Just talking to the rain
You say I've been driving you crazy
And it's keeping you away
So just give me one good reason
Tell my why I should stay
'Cause I don't want to waste another moment
Saying things we never meant to say
And I... take it just a little bit
I hold my breath¹ and count to ten
I've been waiting for a chance to let you in
If I just breathe...
Let it fill the space between
Oh no, everything is alright
Breathe... every little piece of me
You'll see everything is alright
If I just breathe

Well the talks are overrated
Am I saying how you feel?
So you end up watching chances fade
And wondering what's real
And I... get you just a little time
I wonder if you realize
I've been waiting 'til I see it in your eyes
If I just breathe...
Let it fill the space between
Oh no, everything is alright
Breathe... every little piece of me
You'll see everything is alright
If I just breathe...
Breathe...
'til I whisper² in the dark
Oh can you hear... me?
Do you hear... me?
If I just breathe...
Let it fill the space between
Oh no, everything is alright
Breathe... every little piece of me
You'll see everything is alright

Everything is alright
If I just breathe... breathe
I've been driving for an hour
Just talking to the rain
