Breathing room
Sarah feat. Vann Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I found my space
(come and drive with me)

The world is too small
And it's hard to find some room
Pay so much for walls around us
And close in too soon
We all hold for doors to open
The place to rest our heads
We get tired of all the driving
And we break down in stead
But that's not for you
'Cause you're part of my plan
Throw the things that you're in love with
In the back of my van
And we'll just drive off to somewhere
We'd both rather be
Say that life's about the journey
Come and drive it with me

[CHORUS:]
'Cause I finally found my space
Come ride with me I've got some breathing room now
For the world's a better place
'Cause I finally found my space
I've got some breathing room now (got some breathing room now)
For you and me

I've got sunshine but once there was a grey
Got some money in my pocket
I put some more away
I've got my hands on the wheel
For the first time I see
That this life's about the journey




Come and drive it with me

[CHORUS]

A night on the road
Cruisin' in the moonlight
When we're together
Everything feels so right
Just like we're driving in a universe of two
Tonight

So just kick back (relax)
And watch the world go by
Feel your worries disappearing
When you get by my side
And crank that cereal way up
And kickers into drive
'Cause this life's about the journey
And we're feeling alive

[CHORUS] 2x

Finally found my space
I've got some breathing room now
Right here
For you and me...
