Lyrics

IN BETWEEN THE BREATH
(Jackie Carlyle)

I HELD YOUR HAND, SAID GOODBYE
AND FELT AS THOUGH I'D SHATTER
AND WONDER WHY WE SPEND THE TIME
ON THINGS THAT DO NOT MATTER

TO CARRY ON I MUST BELIEVE THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS DEATH
THERE IS JUST THE STILLNESS,
IN BETWEEN THE BREATH

THE WORDS YOU COULDN'T EXPRESS
YOU HAD CONFESSED WITHIN YOUR EYES
AND I SAID "I AM SORRY"
WITH EVERY HEAVY SIGH

TO CARRY ON I MUST BELIEVE THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS DEATH
THERE IS JUST THE STILLNESS,
IN BETWEEN THE BREATH

SOMEWHERE BETWEEN HERE AND HEAVEN
I CAN FEEL YOU THERE
SMILING IN A PHOTOGRAPH
OR IN YOUR FAVORITE CHAIR

ARE WE MADE OF BITS AND PIECES
FLOATING IN THE MIST
AND WHEN THE BODY CEASES
DOES THE SOUL EXIST

I HELD YOUR HAND, SAID GOODBYE
AND FELT AS THOUGH I'D SHATTER
AND WONDER WHY WE SPEND THE TIME
ON THINGS THAT DO NOT MATTER

TO CARRY ON I MUST BELIEVE THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS DEATH
THERE IS JUST THE STILLNESS,
IN BETWEEN THE BREATH
