I Hear Her Breathe

She's been asleep for some time now

In a world of glass and paper doubt

The doc explains in the best way he knows how

That the cancer found its way in through out mouths

Wake from your sleep

Oh precious one

Wake up now

I can hear her breathe

She's coming back to me

And when she speaks

Can we live with what we've done

Oh she's moving and I am terrified

That we can't hear the whisper

If I make it to morning and somehow believe

It was fear that turned our dreams to doubt

Her cancer I ate for her father who waits

Cause she wants to sing again

Wake from your sleep

Oh precious one

Wake up now

I can hear her breathe

She's coming back to me

And when she speaks

Can we live with what we've done

Oh she's moving and I am terrified

That we can't hear the whisper

What kind of son would I be if I let her sleep

What kind of brother would I be if I let her sleep

She's gonna speak

I can hear her breathe

She's coming back to me

And when she speaks

Can we live with what we've done

Oh she's moving and I am terrified

That we can't hear the whisper
