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
