Blacktop Fields
How two musicians halfway across the country work out some songs

Breathe You

Light creeps in upon your face
It's early yet to rise
I feel you with each heartbeat
And I breathe you with my eyes
I'm lying with perfection
And I can't believe you're mine
This moment I have stolen
And it's frozen in my mind

I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop
Just like it has before
But you slip them off as you kiss my lips
I couldn't love you
I couldn't love you...

Drive me crazy telling me
How beautiful I am
You rescue me from lonely
With a touch of your sweet hand
You suffocate me with the things
I cannot ask of you
You vanquish every fear with
Your adherance to the truth

(instrumental bridge)
(chorus)
(or is it the other way around and the chorus comes before the bridge? Either way...)

I can hold out no longer
I reach out to touch your skin
You ope' your eyes to see me
And you melt me with a grin
You bathe me with a love
That I have never known before
The dawning day is calling out
To lovers come explore

I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop
Just like it has before
But you slip them off as you kiss my lips
I couldn't love you
I couldn't love you more
