I sit and think back on those days
I was naive enough to believe
That growing up would stop the heart ache
And it would solve everything
Well here I am, I’m older now
I know You like I never dared to dreamed
And yet somehow it feels the same
God, why is my heart still breaking
And it feels like
I’m waiting to breathe, waiting to breathe
And it feels like
I’m waiting for Your love to come crashing over me
Lord, I pray that it won’t be long
But till then I am holding on
With everything inside of me
Just waiting to breathe
How can I feel so alone when You’re here
Sometimes it feels foolish to believe
But every single time that I try to let go
You are still holding on to me
And somehow, no matter how it hurts
I can’t seem to let go of this dream
That this hope, the anchor of my soul
Is the God that I will finally see
And it feels like
I’m waiting to breathe, waiting to breathe
And it feels like
I’m waiting for Your love to come crashing over me
Lord, I pray that it won’t be long
But till then I am holding on
With everything inside of me
Just waiting to breathe
And I’m holding tight
And trying to let go
But through all the doubt
There is still one thing I know
I can’t live without You
No matter what I do
It’s all on You now
And it feels like
I’m waiting to breathe, waiting to breathe
And it feels like
I’m waiting for Your love to come crashing over me
Lord, I pray that it won’t be long
But till then I am holding on
With everything inside of me
Just waiting to breathe
