Breathe (Live) [Paris 10/10/01]

[Verse 1]

I heard a rumour, they travel far

You know what it's like, the way people are

They talk and they talk, though they don't understand

They'll whisper and whisper and lie on demand

[Chorus]

Please tell me now, I want to know

I have to hear it from your lips

Say it's not so

[Verse 2]

I heard it on Monday and I laughed a while

I heard it on Tuesday, I managed to smile

I heard it on Wednesday, my patience was tried

I heard it on Thursday and I hurt inside

[Chorus]

Well I want to know the depths of your mind

Tell me this whole thing is madness

And we're doing fine

[Bridge]

Put your little hand in mine

And believe in love

Put your head on my chest

And breathe love, breathe love

Breathe love, breathe love

[Verse 3]

And I heard it from Peter who heard it from Paul

Who heard it from someone I don't know at all

And I heard it from Mary who heard it from Ruth

Who swore on the Bible she's telling the truth

And I heard it from Simon who heard it from James

Confirming with Sarah that I was to blame

And I heard it from Joseph who heard it from John

Who said with conviction that all hope was gone

[Chorus]

So I need to know your alibis

I need to hear that you love me

Before you say goodbye

Before you say goodbye

Before you say goodbye

Before you say goodbye

[Outro]

"Thank you."
