George Strait - The Breath You Take lyrics
Your rating:
He looks up from second base, dad's up in the stands He saw the hit, the run, the slide there ain't no bigger fan In the parking lot after the game, he said "Dad, I thought you had a plane to catch" He smiled and said: "Yeah, son, I did" Life's not the breath you take The breathing in and out That gets you through the day Ain't what it's all about You just might miss the point Try to win the race Life's not the breath you take But the moments that take your breath away Fast forward fifteen years And a thousand miles away Boy's built a life, he's got a wife And a baby due today He hears a voice saying: "I made it, son" He says: "I told you, dad, you didn't have to come He smiles and says: "Yeah, I know you did" Life's not the breath you take The breathing in and out That gets you through the day Ain't what it's all about You just might miss the point Try to win the race Life's not the breath you take But the moments that take your breath away Just like it took my breath when she was born Just like it took my breath away when dad took his last that morn Life's not the breath you take The breathing in and out That gets you through the day Ain't what it's all about You just might miss the point If you don't slow down the pace Life's not the breath you take But the moments that take your breath away
