Hardly breathing, hardly breathing

I really wanna take you back
It's killing me watching you walk, away, yeah
But my head ain't okay with that
And lord knows how much I want you babe
It hurts me that you can't stay, ah

This old heart of mine won't let you break it
Not again, not again
It hurt so many times and I can't take it, not again
'Cause I'm hardly breathing
One more teary eye, or sleepless nights
Just might kill this heart of mine
Hardly breathing, hardly breathing

Begging won't do nothing
Forgave you many times along the way
Yeah, yeah, ah,
My mama said don't trust him
But deep inside my soul I found
A place and now I want you out baby

This old heart of mine won't let you break it
Not again, not again
It hurt so many times and I can't take it, not again
'Cause I'm hardly breathing
One more teary eye, or sleepless nights
Just might kill this heart of mine
Hardly breathing, hardly breathing

Feels like I'm on my last night, night
And I can't take a chance
Of not being able to breathe again
Another heart breaker might lie inside
So I learned from the last time
That loving you ain't worth losing my life

This old heart of mine won't let you break it
Not again, not again
It hurt so many times and I can't take it, not again
'Cause I'm hardly breathing
One more teary eye, or sleepless nights
Just might kill this heart of mine
Hardly breathing, hardly breathing

Just might kill this heart of mine.
