[Verse 1]
I wouldn't compliment myself for what I've become
Tell him I owe it to him
Tell him I owe it to him
I wouldn't praise myself for every good thing I've done
Tell him I owe it to him
Tell him I owe it to him

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell him I owe it to
Tell him I owe it to
Tell him I owe it to, owe it to him
Hands upon my chest

[Chorus]
Oh, won't you breathe life into these dead lungs I
Keep under my coat
And keep life warm against the cold night as our bodies grow old
Grow old, grow...

[Verse 2]
I don't want to give up and I know when to breathe
Believe me, I owe it to him
Tell him I owe it to him

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell him I owe it to
Tell him I owe it to
Tell him I owe it to, owe it to him
Hands upon my chest
[Chorus]
Oh, won't you breathe life into these dead lungs I
Keep under my coat
And keep life warm against the cold night
As our bodies grow old, grow old

[Bridge]
Take my silence as a warning
I will not deter your mourning

[Chorus]
Oh, won't you breathe life into these dead lungs I
Keep under my coat
And keep life warm against the cold night
As our bodies grow old, grow old

[Ad-Libs]
