Breathe
Dev Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah, I'm a Taurus
They say that we're patient lovers
But you're Aries
Are you a Scorpio, you're Cancer or Capricorn?
Or a cusp? Cool
I'll be sure to bring you water
Yes, girl, I got candles
That will slow burn longer
And I know your favorite love song
And how you like it on repeat
Me, I was born a patient lover
So I'll start with your feet
It would be like when hearts beat as one
It would feel like no ordinary kiss
You and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
If you would feel like when hearts beat as one
It would be like no ordinary love
You and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
I'll do my best to inspire you
To dream of us till we meet again
You may even be encouraged
To take a walk so we can love again
The most high outdid herself
When she created you
And girl, I am thankful
For how our love has bloomed
It would be like when hearts beat as one
It would feel like no ordinary kiss
You and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
If you would feel like when hearts beat as one
It would be like no ordinary love
For you and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
Picture us makin' love
Picture us makin' love
Picture us makin' love
Baby, close your eyes
Picture
It would be like when hearts beat as one
It would feel like no ordinary kiss
You and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
If you would feel like when hearts beat as one
It would be like no ordinary love
For you and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
It would be like when hearts beat as one
It would feel like no ordinary kiss
You and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
If you would feel like when hearts beat as one
It would be like no ordinary love
For you and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
It would be like when hearts beat as one
It would feel like no ordinary kiss
You and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life
If you would feel like when hearts beat as one
It would be like no ordinary love
For you and I, now close your eyes
And picture us breathing life into our love
