The Bigger Lights - Time Stops Breathing Lyrics

midnight in the valley
sprawled out with stars around me
shot down from our sky charade
so long what we once were
strung out and full of fire
if we could only see us now

give in, give up, and soak into the airwaves
get up, get in, and bring yourself to me
breathe in, breathe out, fingertips and heartbeats
are all we need

time stops breathing for a moment
if right here, right now, is all we've got
we'd better make it last
so take me and make me
a part of you apart from you tonight

we trade whispers over
cell phones under cover
from those sleeping at our sides
your kiss, in the distance is
crimeless without a witness
it helps just to know it's there

give in, give up, and soak into the airwaves
get up, get in, and bring yourself to me
breathe in, breathe out, fingertips and heartbeats
are all we need

time stops breathing for a moment
if right here, right now, is all we've got
we'd better make it last
so take me and make me
a part of you apart from you tonight

tonight, i'll pour myself around you
come light, i'll learn to live without you
in a flash, you'll be gone like the moon at the dawn
of a brand new day
and alone, alone, alone, i'll carry on

time stops breathing for a moment
if right here, right now, is all we've got
we'd better make it last
so take me and make me
a part of you apart from you tonight
