Florence and the Machine - Between Two Lungs lyrics

rate me

Between two lungs it was released

The breath that captured me

The sigh that blew me forward

Because it was trapped

Trapped between two lungs

It was trapped between two lungs

It was trapped between two lungs

And my running feet could fly

Each breath screaming: "We are all too young to die!"

Between two lungs it was released

The breath that passed from you to me

That flew between us as we slept

That slipped from your mouth into mine

It crept between two lungs

It was released

The breath that passed from you to me

That flew between us as we slept

That slipped from your mouth into mine

It crept

Because it was trapped

Trapped between two lungs

It was trapped between two lungs

Now all the days of begging

The days of theft

No more gasping for a breath

The air has filled me head-to-toe

And I can see the ground far below

I have this breath and I hold it tight

And I keep it in my chest with all my mgiht

I pray to god this breath will last

As it pushes past my lips

As I...

Gasp
