A friend I had once told me

Such an unusual story

Of a man who did breathe in but never did breathe out

This tale reminds me of you

Though a different shade of blue

You cannot always take and never give this is not how to live

(chorus)

You gotta breathe in and out

You gotta spread a little love all around

Though I don't know this for sure

Just another knock at my door

A sprinkling of an inkling underneath an apple tree

I'll tell you when i find out

And show you what it is to breathe out

A natural progression lesson messin' up your mind

(chorus x2)

I feel in you another way to be

I watch as you breathe over me

I'm breathing

Like a tale on jackanory

The end to this unusual story is

A breath upon a window payne so com'on step out of the rain

Though i'd like to think this were true

You've become a deeper shade of blue

In my eyes this comes as no surprise you've nothing left to give no

(chorus x2)
