Lyrics

[Verse 1] Tell me it's all in my head, tell me it's all a bad dream That I'm just gonna wake up, and you'll still be next to me A permanent weight on my chest where I should be holding you close Don't let me live in a world where I have to let you go [Chorus] You might as well take the breath from my lungs The stars from the sky I wouldn't need the sun to rise If you're not here, what would I be? Darlin', don't take your love from me I could live without, oh, just about anythin' But, if I lose you, darlin', then I lose everything [Verse 2] How could I ever get by? How could I ever go on Knowing you're spending the night in somebody else's arms Letting him take off your dress, watching it fall to the floor I wouldn't have anything left, and I couldn’t take anything more [Chorus] You might as well take the breath from my lungs The stars from the sky I wouldn't need the sun to rise If you're not here, what would I be? Darlin', don't take your love from me I could live without, oh, just about anythin' But, if I lose you, darlin', then I lose everything [Bridge] Pull me in, say it's not over 2 a.m., and I'm going through hell Stay the night, cry on my shoulder [Chorus] But if you leave, then you might as well take the breath from my lungs Stars from the sky I wouldn't need the sun to rise If you're not here, what would I be? Darlin', don't take your love from me I could live without, oh, just about anythin' But, if I lose you, darlin', then I lose everything
