Breathe Again
Braxton Toni Lyrics

If I never feel you in my arms again,
If I am never in your embrace, never close to you again.

If I never feel your tender kiss again,
If I am deprived of the gentle touch of your lips upon mine once again.

If I never hear "I love you" now and then,
If I never hear those three words from you again, even every now and then.

Will I never make love to you once again?
If I never feel the love, the passion we once shared, would I never experience it again?

Please understand, if love ends,
I am resigning myself to the fact that our love might come to an end.

Then I promise you, I promise you that,
Even though our love might come to an end, I make the solemn pledge that…

That I shall never breathe again.
I would rather give up my life than live without you if our love ends.

And I can't stop thinking about,
I am constantly consumed with thoughts about the past and what we used to have.

About the way things used to be,
I can't help but reminisce about the past and the way things were between us.

About the love that you made to me.
I think obsessively about the love we once shared and the way you made me feel.

And I can't get you out of my head;
You are always on my mind no matter how hard I try to forget you.

How in the world will I begin
I am so lost and devastated that I can't even imagine how to begin to move on.

To let you walk right out of my life
I cannot bear the thought of you leaving my life completely.

And throw my heart away?
If you leave, it would be like throwing away the most important part of me which is my heart filled with love for you.

And I can't stop caring about,
I still care about you so much even though it may hurt me.

About the apple of my eye,
I can't stop thinking about you, the one who is most precious and beloved to me, my apple of the eye.

And I can't stop doing without,
I cannot imagine a life without you, I feel powerless without you.

Without the center of my life.
You are like the center of my life, if you go away, my life will be incomplete and pointless.

God knows how hard I've tried,
I tried really hard to forget about you, to move on with my life, but still, it is difficult.

God knows I'm sure to die.
I would rather die than live without you if our love does not work out.

For I will surely fall apart.
Not having you in my life would lead to my complete disintegration, I would be unable to put myself together.

And I know I can't deny,
I cannot deny the truth that I am hopelessly in love with you.

And I would die if you decide
If you decide to leave me, it would be like going to an early grave for me.

You won't see me again.
If you choose not to see me again, I will be devastated forever.

That I shall never breathe again.
If our love ends, I would rather not breathe again than live without you.
