As I Roved Out
Countdown Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lately I've been runnin'
Into our old friends
And somewhere in the small talk
Someone always asks where you've been
So I tell them what you told me
And they can't believe we're through
They ask me what I'm doin' now
And in case you're wonderin' too

[Chorus]
I breathe in, and breathe out
Put one foot in front of the other
Take one day at a time
'til you find
I'm that someone you can't live without
Until then
I'll breathe in, and breathe out

I've got every reason
To find someone new
Cause you swore up and down to me
That I've seen the last of you
But the way you loved me
Girl it left me hopin' and holdin' on
So until this world stops turning round
And my heart believes that you're gone

[Chorus]

Bridge
We were meant to be
Girl there's no doubt
And if it takes the rest of my life
For you to figure it out

[Chorus]





I'll breathe in, I'll breathe out

Line by Line Meaning

Lately I've been runnin'
Recently I've been socializing


Into our old friends
I have been meeting our mutual acquaintances


And somewhere in the small talk
During our conversations


Someone always asks where you've been
People always inquire about your whereabouts


So I tell them what you told me
I repeat what you confided in me


And they can't believe we're through
They are surprised that our relationship has ended


They ask me what I'm doin' now
They enquire about my current activities


And in case you're wonderin' too
In case you are curious as well


[Chorus]
Refrain


I breathe in, and breathe out
I inhale and exhale air


Put one foot in front of the other
Move forward one step at a time


Take one day at a time
Live one day at a time


'til you find
Until you realize


I'm that someone you can't live without
That I am the person you cannot live without


Until then
Until that realization comes


I'll breathe in, and breathe out
I will continue to inhale and exhale air


I've got every reason
I have all the justifications


To find someone new
To search for a new partner


Cause you swore up and down to me
Since you assured me endlessly


That I've seen the last of you
That I will not see you again


But the way you loved me
However, the love you displayed


Girl it left me hopin' and holdin' on
Gave me expectations and made me hold onto it


So until this world stops turning round
Until the end of time


And my heart believes that you're gone
And I come to terms with your absence


[Chorus]
Refrain


Bridge
Interlude


We were meant to be
We were destined to be together


Girl there's no doubt
There is no uncertainty about it


And if it takes the rest of my life
And even if it takes forever


For you to figure it out
For you to come to the same realization


[Chorus]
Refrain


I'll breathe in
I will inhale air


I'll breathe out
I will exhale air
