Without Your Love
Breathe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Like a desert blooms with new fallen rains
Like joy you bring me makes me live just the same
Like a northern star that shines through the night
The peace you offer feels so right, I can't live...
Without your love, without your love, if you were to leave me now
I would be lost somehow, without your love...

As mother nature makes her seasons go by
Both our lives are just as deeply entwined
All the ocean's waters flow into one
Just like this union we've begun, I can't live...
Without your love, without your love
Without your love, without your love
If you were to leave me now, I would be lost somehow

Without your love, one empty space, one fear that I could never face
Without your love, those silent tears, those are the payment for your years
Without your love, I'd lose my way, I'd never see the light of day
Without your love, I could never trust this way again
Without your love, without your love




Without your love, without your love
Without your love, without your love (repeat to fade)
