Breathe

By Dragonfly

I saw a man who walked on water
Saw him coming straight for me
Watched as he held me closer
held my heart and said "Breathe."

I wanna walk on the ocean
and follow through his tides
every step he made on water
made for me to follow him

I wish I knew where your were going
I wish I knew where you sleep
I wish knew if you think of me
So then maybe I could just "Breathe"

You were my water
I was the moon of the sea
with every push shove
soon came more love surrounding me.

I wish you still held me closer
wish you still held me dear
wish when you fell through water
that you fought off all my fears

Now I'm still waiting for a man walking on water
to hold me close and remind me to breathe
because you couldn't walk on water
Even though in you I always believed.

Now my heart is stopping
skipping a beat or two
as that man who walks on water
came back for me with you

Just Breathe.
