Barely Breathing

I can't help but stop and listen
Whenever you begin to sing
The timbres of your voice
Penetrate my entire being

Every time you get up on that stage
I feel my heartstrings being pulled
Your ballad always draws me near
And common sense is overruled

May as well strum along my heart
When you strum on your guitar
The melodies you create with ease
Often bring me to my knees
When you're around I can barely breathe

I yearn to learn more of this man
Who can control my thoughts like this
You lyrics often stay with me
Long after that they've left your lips

May as well strum along my heart
When you strum on your guitar
The melodies you create with ease
Often bring me to my knees
When you're around I can barely breathe

And although it wasn't meant for me
Your song seeps into my soul
I close my eyes and simply let go
And let yout music take control
