Don't hold your breath if you should be breathing   Don't hold your tongue if something's worth speaking   Don't fall in love if you know that you're leaving   You can't help the way that you feel      Given the time I know it's my place   But still I see reason conquered by passion   You knew the deal but still had to have it   You can't help the way that you feel      And I tried to read you   And I tried to see through every word from your mouth   Caution falls slowly, and soon I'll be lonely   But I'd rather live without doubt      Timing my dear is not in our favor   Please don't you let that change your behavior   We'll work it out sooner or later   For now you should do what you feel      I tried to read you   And I tried to see through every word from your mouth   Caution falls slowly, and soon I'll be lonely   But I'd rather live without doubt      You came without warning and you took me away   It takes a fool to fight fate   I was unwilling to try, now the thought I embrace   Despite of my usual way      And I tried to read you   And I tried to see through every word from your mouth   Caution falls slowly, and soon I'll be lonely   But I'd rather live without doubt      And I tried to read you   I tried to see through every word from your mouth   And caution falls slowly, soon I'll be lonely   But I'd rather live without doubt      Don't hold your breath if you should be breathing   Don't hold your tongue if something's worth speaking
