Stop to Breathe

With a touch of your hand
You pull me into your arms
Unable to resist, our breaths become one
Grasping and waiting, desperately needing
Is this the moment we allow it to take over
Pent up and surging
I can't take it anymore

Oh, you pull me in
And I stop to breathe
Because I can't waste time
I must feel everything
Every single rush, each tiny pause
I've got to grab hold of and treasure it because
It's been so long since I felt you near
God, your soft skin could move me to tears
Just let me breathe
So I can breathe your air
And know that you are everywhere

I can feel your heart beating
It's racing with mine under our chests repeating
How this love is stirred, how it never left
As you hold my face, I catch my breath
One little inch closer after another
Your lips beckon mine and you capture me under

Sweet love
My sweet love
Let me flow, let me drift
Embrace me in your kiss
Sweet love
My sweet love

Oh, you move me to tears
Do you know how long, just...how long
Each minute felt like years
And each drop releases all those fears
Because you have me in your arms
And you hold me without apology
And I treasure you a million times over with my eyes
Reunion is so sweet

Sweet love
My sweet love
I feel everything.
