lyrics

When the notes in the chord resonate just right
And the dusky clouds glow, anticipating night
And the flowers turn their heads as I’m walking by
I must remember to breathe

Chorus:
Breathe, and everything flows right through me
Breathe, letting go of what clings to me
And I recall a small moment of joy in my life
And I work to embrace both the love and the strife
When it’s all going well, and when it’s not going well
I try to notice it all when I breathe

When I’m anxious to do something I know I do well
When my car is filled with papers and sweaters and smells
When the questions and the management start to overwhelm
I must remember to breathe

At the end of the day when I lie on the floor
Overwhelmed with the thoughts, feeling tired and sore
And I’m stuck in a puzzle that I’d rather ignore
I must remember to breathe

Chorus

When I finally feel the command of the floor
When the stage is kind of shaky and the rain starts to pour
When I’m feeling so small I just don’t know anymore
I must remember to breathe

Chorus
