Brian Setzer Orchestra - Breath Of Life lyrics

rate me

You stepped in and dark turned to light

I knew right there you were the breath of life

Just when I'd given up the fight

I knew right there you were the breath of life

Just when the morning air lost its bitter bite

You never think your heart will butterfly

Ballerina don't you dance your life away

Those years meant nothing till this cold December day

You stepped back to say goodnight

I knew right there you were the breath of life

We looked up at a blinding light

I knew right there you were the breath of life

I never thought that I could say those words again

I think you know the ones I'm sure you know the ones

I've been hiding alone in the night

On and on like a dream that never ends

So come on out don't say goodnight

Out of the shadows to the neon light

Meet you down where that Dixieland plays

Leave all your troubles gonna dance 'em away

Drop my hands by my side let the hours slip away

Don't say nothing let the music play

Twenty years on down when the time is right

I'll turn around and know you were the breath of life
