Before It Sinks In

Suspended in the air, I hear myself breathing
 Hanging by a thread, my heart is barely beating
 I haven't fallen yet, but I feel it comin'
 Tell me, would it be too much to ask if you break it to me gently?
 That I'm waking the next day without you beside me
 And who I hold on to today, tomorrow will just be a memory
 And then I would look back at all of this
 And wonder why I stayed in here just to watch you disappear
 So I breathe and let you go
 How do I breathe and let you go?
 Before it's too late, I'll take a step away
 I know one word would make me go rushing back to you
 So I'll just shut my eyes, forget that you were mine
 How do you go from making one your home and then just letting it all go?
 Let me take it in before it sinks in
 Far beyond my reach is the future you promised
 Now what I never even had, I have every reason to miss
 And I don't know where I could find the strength to let you go
 When the only love I've come to know packed his bags and left me alone
 You found another home
 So before it's too late, I'll take a step away
 I know one word would make me go rushing back to you
 And I'll just shut my eyes, forget that you were mine
 How do you go from making one your home and then just letting it all go?
 Let me take it in before it sinks in
 Go
 Go
 Go
 Go
 Before it's too late, I'll take a step away
 I know one word would make me go rushing back to you
 I'll just shut my eyes, forget that you were mine
 How do you go from making one your home and then just letting it all go?
 Let me take it in before it sinks in
