[Intro]

Hardly breathing, hardly breathing

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 1]

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

[Chorus]

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, the sleepless nights

Just might kill this heart of mine

Hardly breathing, hardly breathing

[Bridge]

Feels like I'm on my last life line,

And I can't take a chance,

Of not being able to breathe again

Another heartbreak and I might die inside

So I learned from the last time,

That loving you ain't worth losing my life

[Chorus]

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, the sleepless nights

Just might kill this heart of mine

Hardly breathing,

Hardly breathing

[Outro]

Just might kill this heart of mine.
