Breathe Again Lyrics
If I never feel you in my arms again
If I never feel your tender kiss again
If I never hear I love you now and then
Will I never make love to you once again
Please understand if love ends
Then I promise you, I promise you
That, that I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
Breathe again
That I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
And I can't stop thinkin' about
About the way things used to be
And I can't stop thinkin' about
About the love that you make to me
And I can't get you outta my head
How in the world will I begin
To let you walk right out my life
And blow my heart away
And I can't stop carin' about
About the apple of my eye
And I can't stop doin' without
Without the center of my life
And I can't get you outta my head
And I know I can't pretend
That I won't die if you decide
You won't see me again
If I never feel you in my arms again
If I never feel your tender kiss again
If I never hear I love you now and then
Will I never make love to you once again
Please understand if love ends
Then I promise you, I promise you
That, that I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
Breathe again
That I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
And I can't stop thinkin' about
About the way my life would be
No I can't stop thinkin' about
How could your love be leavin' me
And I can't get you outta my mind
God knows how hard I tried
And if you walk right out my life
God knows I'd surely die
And I can't stop doin' without
Without the rythm of my heart
No I can't stop doin' without
For I would surely fall apart
And I can't get you outta my mind
Cause I know I can't deny it
And I would die if you decide
You won't see me again
If I never feel you in my arms again
If I never feel your tender kiss again
If I never hear I love you now and then
Will I never make love to you once again
Please understand if love ends
Then I promise you, I promise you
That, that I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
Breathe again
That I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
Meaning of Breathe Again
“Breathe Again” is a raw and desperate plea from Toni Braxton about the utter devastation of losing love. The lyrics paint a picture of complete dependence, where her existence itself is inextricably linked to the presence and affection of her partner. She’s consumed by agonizing thoughts, unable to process the potential abandonment, fixating on cherished memories and the profound emptiness left behind – she can't stop thinking about how her life would be without him, and the pain of his departure feels like a certainty of death. The repeated declaration “I shall never breathe again” isn’t literal; it symbolizes the suffocating despair and inability to function without this vital connection. Ultimately, Braxton conveys a heartbreaking vulnerability and a terrifying realization that love is not just a feeling, but the very essence of her being, highlighting the profound fear of oblivion when that love disappears.
