breeze

by brendan philip mccusker

verse 1

walkin by the older kids all swinging up into the stars

(i was holding on, i was holding on)

twisted ankle brought you down so i just wrapped you in my arms

(you were holding on, you were holding on)

pre 1

you tell me that you love me and everything will be just fine

i know that you’re right but

i don’t wanna say

chorus

goodbye

i can hear your heartbeat carry on beside me

i won’t say goodbye

reaching out to guide me floating all around me

i feel you in the breeze

verse

four AM they call up
telling me to book the soonest flight

(you were holding on, you were holding on)

racing up the stairs to
see you smiling back for one last time

(i was holding on, i was holding on)

pre 2

i tell you that i love you

and everything will be alright

terrified it’s untrue
holding back the morning light

words aren’t coming to you
but i can see it in your eyes

you’re ready to fly but i don’t wanna say
