lyrics

You gave my heart a purpose for its beating
You gave my life a real meaning

You gave my lungs the strength to breathe,
And let the air out

I've said it once, I've said it twice,
I'll say it until my soul collides,
With the beat of the drums
I'll sing it once, I'll sing it loud,
I'll sing it until the day I die,
And my lungs give in

You gave my heart a purpose for its beating
You gave my life a real meaning
You gave my lungs the strength to breathe,
And let the air out

I've come from far, but still so close
I've gone from a shadow to a ghost,
But now I'm here again
I've seen the worst, I've seen the best,
In every person I have met

But this is for you, you're the best friend I could have got
But this is for you, you're the best friend I could have got

You helped me through the worst,
Through the best, through the lies and I guess,
That's all I could wish from a person I have met

You gave my heart a purpose for its beating
You gave my life a real meaning
You gave my lungs the strength to breathe,
and let the air out
