lyrics

Taking a chance
As I learn to dance
Crawling down
To this hole I've found

Letting the days go by
Under the night sky
I'm not okay
But that's alright
It's alright

Take my breath away
It's worth more to you than me
And if you choose to stay
You'd light up my life like a shooting star

With you I've found
I'm finally free
Breathing out
Breathing in me
It's all I can do to feel

Take your breath away
I've come so far don't you see
And if I choose to stay
I'd light up my life just for you

And I know it's all tiring
Trying to find the meaning
And sometimes your compass
Doesn't always point north
But sometimes north
Isn't what we're looking for

Take our breath away
You've come so far don't you see
And if you choose to stay
You'd light up our lives

Take my breath away
It's worth more to you than me
And if you choose to stay
You'd light up my life like a shooting star
