My Only Reason

[Verse 1]
Every breath I take just feels like a lie
If I can't take the next one right by your side
At night I see your face behind my eyes
A quiet ghost under lonely skies

[Chorus]
You're the peace that finally sets my heart free
Without you, I am only half of me
You are my prayer, my one reason why
'Cause breathing without you is learning to die

[Verse 2]
In the fading light of the afternoon rain
I find myself whispering your name
Every thought is a map that leads back to you
In every small thing that I say or I do

[Bridge]
If a hundred lifetimes should pull us apart
I'd search every one for the half of my heart

[Outro]
You're my first morning thought, my last evening prayer
My world only starts when you're there.
