Lyrics for “Willie Nelson – Just Breathe”

“Just Breathe”
(feat. Lukas Nelson)
(originally by Pearl Jam)

Yes I understand, that every life must end, uh-huh
As we sit alone, I know someday we must go, uh-huh

Oh I’m a lucky man to count on both hands the ones I love
Some folks just have one, yeah, others, they’ve got none.

Stay with me
Let’s just breathe

Practiced on my sins, never gonna let you win, uh-huh
Under everything, just another human being, uh-huh

I don’t want to hurt
There’s so much in this world to make me believe

Stay with me
All I see

Did I say that I need you?
Did I say that I want you?
Oh if I didn’t I’m a fool you see
No one knows this more than me
But I come clean

I wonder everyday, as I look upon your face, uh-huh
Everything you gave and nothing you would take, uh-huh
Nothing you would take, everything you gave

Did I say that I need you?
Did I say that I want you?
Oh if I didn’t I’m a fool you see
No one knows this more than me
But I come clean

Nothing you would take, everything you gave
Love you till I die, meet you on the other side
