Breathing Room Lyrics

Breathing Room lyrics

you always said that if i'm a star then you're a constellation

but the sky is burnt out and we're just going through emotions

you've got this mile wide smile that follows you and lights up rooms

i'm getting sick and tired of waiting in the dark



tell me you need some time alone

you need some room to breathe

and i'll be on my way

whenever you need some time alone

just tell me you need some time alone



and if you need to find me i'll be wandering the streets

dining alone at all our favorite places to eat

and drinking alone waiting for the phone to ring

i hope whatever's in this bottle leaves me brave enough to sleep



tell me you need some time alone

if you need some room to breathe

then i'll be on my way

whenever you need some time alone

just tell me you need some time alone



then i'll walk on and you'll just say

feelings fail and people change

we'll pretend that when we meet

we're better off as friends



[x2]

and if you say theres no way

then when you need me i'll be gone 



lipstick smiles touched to parting lips

we'll be alright.... 

one last time, not unlike the last time

we'll be alright
