[Verse 1] The room gets colder after midnight, your shadow's still dancing on my wall. I pull the sheets around my body, but they don't feel like you at all. I used to think that space was harmless, just miles and hours passing by. So tell me why the more you're distant, the more I feel you by my side. [Pre-Chorus] I don't know when missing you started feeling like a wound. I don't know why every road keeps leading me back to you. [Chorus] Let me breathe tonight, here alone, beside the beating of your heart. Even if you're miles away, I swear I hear it through the dark. These nights are cold without your warmth. I don't understand why distance hurts this much. When I can almost feel your hand. Let me breathe tonight, don't make me learn to be alone. Just stay with me somehow, beside the beating of your heart. [Verse 2] Your voice still lingers in the silence, soft enough to keep me awake. I close my eyes and for a second there's no distance left to hate. Maybe I'm foolish for believing that wanting you could pull you near. But every inch between our bodies only makes it painfully clear. [Pre-Chorus] I don't know when missing you became the hardest thing I do. How can someone be so far and still feel this close to you? [Chorus] Let me breathe tonight, here alone, beside the beating of your heart. Even if you're miles away, I swear I hear it through the dark. These nights are cold without your warmth. I don't understand why distance hurts this much. When I can almost feel your hand. Let me breathe tonight, don't make me learn to be alone. Just stay with me somehow, beside the beating of your heart. [Bridge] If I could fold the night between us, I'd tear the miles out one by one. I'd trade every morning without you for one more hour before the sun. And maybe distance has an answer, maybe love was made to ache. But if your heart is still beside me, give me something I can take. [Final Chorus] So let me breathe tonight, here alone, beside the beating of your heart. Let the whole world disappear, let the silence fall apart. These nights are cold without your warmth, and I finally understand: distance only hurts this much when your heart has found its home. Let me breathe tonight, even if I wake alone. Just stay with me somehow, beside the beating of your heart. [Outro] Breathe tonight... I can hear you in the dark. Breathe tonight... beside the beating of your heart.
