PET SHOP BOYS - Breathing space lyrics

rate me

When your heart is out of love

And you're feeling left behind

Seems the fates aren't on your side

And the fog has left you blind

When the pressure's pulling different ways

Finds you longing for some empty days

I stop for some breathing space

I pause in the public place

Take time from all the time it takes

To make up for all the big mistakes

I gotta get out

I gotta get out

When your life runs out of steam

And you need a little time

If your muse is out of luck

You might need an extra rhyme

When your heart escapes your head down waits

In the growing queue that life creates

I stop for some breathing space

Divert from the public place

Return to a private place

I know it's there just in case

I gotta get out

I gotta get out

Far far away

I'm goin'

Far far away

I gotta get out (Oh-oh oh oh oh)

I gotta get out (Oh-oh oh oo oo)

There's a place beyond this world

Where the mountains meet the sky

It's a different state of mind

like a dream where you can fly

Can I tell you this in confidence?

I need to regain that old innocence

I stop for some breathing space

Divert from the public place

Return to a private place

I know it's there just in case

I gotta get out

I gotta get out
