Bated Breath Lyrics

With bated breath

And bended knee

I pray in earnest

She comes back to me

Without a word

Without a fight

I let her slip away into the night

Oh well I'm strong

But I'm not that strong

I pray the world loosens it's grip on me

Oh, and time tells

When all else has failed

I'll be waiting here with bated breath

With heavy heart

Upon my sleeve

Wear my emotions for the world to see

With each breath in

Won't let it out

Afraid it'd be the least of her around

Oh we both said what we had to say

Just as all lovers would do

Oh, and time tells

When all else has failed

I'll still be waiting here with bated breath

And oh, for now

All that remains

Is frozen and framed

And now, love's an illusion

There are no guarantees

For me

With bated breath

All hope aside

I leave to chance the chance love

Comes back to life

Oh well I'm strong

But I'm not that strong

I pray the world loosens it's grip on me

Oh and time tells

When all else has failed

I'll be waiting here with bated breath

I'll still be waiting here with bated breath
