|
You stepped in and dark turned to light |
|
I knew right there you were the breath of life |
|
Just when I'd given up the fight |
|
I knew right there you were the breath of life |
|
Just when the morning air lost its bitter bite |
|
You never think your heart will butterfly |
|
Ballerina don't you dance your life away |
|
Those years meant nothing till this cold December day |
|
You stepped back to say goodnight |
|
I knew right there you were the breath of life |
|
We looked up at a blinding light |
|
I knew right there you were the breath of life |
|
I never thought that I could say those words again |
|
I think you know the ones I'm sure you know the ones |
|
I've been hiding alone in the night |
|
On and on like a dream that never ends |
|
So come on out don't say goodnight |
|
Out of the shadows to the neon light |
|
Meet you down where that Dixieland plays |
|
Leave all your troubles gonna dance 'em away |
|
Drop my hands by my side let the hours slip away |
|
Don't say nothing let the music play |
|
Twenty years on down when the time is right |
|
I'll turn around and know you were the breath of life |
