Breathe You In
© 2014, Adrienne Shamszad

When I left you at the terminal
I was speechless with desire
Helplessly wanting you

The Sun had not risen
I had a premonition of the fire
Am I strong enough to love somebody new

Ooh, soft and sweet was the air
That enveloped me
That you flew into

Aah, will you come back to me dear?
And envelop me
As I breathe you in
As I breathe in you

Is it land that separates
Or a fear of changing course
Like a hesitation at the fork of a new road

Patience be my friend
Teach me to love without force
To be humble in the face of the unknown

Oh sweet jasmine in the air
It beckons me
As I think of you

Aah, will you come back to me dear?
And envelop me
As I breathe you in
As I breathe in you

Maybe the timing isn’t right
And we still have more to grow
Maybe California’s too far from Tennessee

But Baby when our moment comes
I’ll love you better then you’ve known
Are you gonna do the same to me?

O! How sweet was the air
That enveloped me
That you flew into

Aah, will you come back to me dear?
And envelop me
As I breathe you in
As I breathe in you
