Pushing someone you love away but loving them so deeply you can't keep yourself from them
I let you walk away ...
Watched as you turned ...
Urging me  to speak the words you longed to hear ...
Too proud to tell you ...

Every beat ... Every breath ... Belongs to you ...

I wish I could be the woman you need ...
No mistakes made ... Heart sure, Head clear ...
You deserve better than me ...
Hard as I try ...
I can't will myself from you ...

Every beat ... Every Breath ... Belongs to you ...

Days fade into weeks ...
I'm sorry too heavy to fall from my lips ...

Convincing myself I did the right thing ... For you ...

Your sorrow fills my waking thoughts ...
Need consuming restless nights...
Afraid to hurt you ...
Afraid to tear myself from you ...

Every beat ... Every Breath ... Belongs to you ...
