George Strait - The Breath You Take Lyrics

He looks up from second base dad's up in the stands
He saw the hit, the run, the slide
there ain't no bigger fan
In the parking lot after the game he said
"Dad I thought you had a plane to catch"
He smiled and said "Yeah son I did"

Life's not the breaths you take
The breathing in and out
That gets you through the day
Ain't what it's all about
Ya just might miss the point
Try'n to win the race
Life's not the breaths you take
But the moments that take your breath away

Fast forward fifteen years
And a thousand miles away
Boy's built a life he's got a wife
And a baby due today
He hears a voice saying "I made it son
He said "I told you dad you didn't have to come"
He smiles and says "Yeah I know you did"
Just like it took my breath when she was born

Just like it took my breath away
when dad took his last that morn
Life's not the breaths you take
The breathing in and out That gets you through the day
Ain't what it's all about Ya just might miss the point
If ya don't slow down the pace
Life's not the breaths you take
But the moments that take your breath away

  • man That site is a virus! and you ended the song half way through! ma thats NOT cool!

  • @TheCodylover1234 My condolences, but this is actually a happy song. It is about the progression and successes of life. Its a father happy about his son and his son's future.

  • @humminbird00

    I completely agree. I remember the George that gave us "The Fireman" and "Amarillo by Morning," not cheesy, inspirational MySpace quotes.

  • @TheCodylover1234 I am so sorry about your Great Grandma. I am praying for you.

  • This song is sooo sad they played this song when my great grandma's funeral

  • don't get me wrong, I love George Strait... and the lyrics are amazing.... however this is just not a "George Strait" song... it's one of the very few songs I can't listen to. I think it's the sad and depressing key that it's sang in, but I just cannot like this song... and I know I'll catch flack for it, but I just can't. I love George, but this just ain't him...

  • I much rather perfer hiphop,but this song touched my heart.....that may also be because i can relate too this song. <3 i wish everyone looked at life like this.

  • how can you dislike this song... well than again not all people like this type of music

  • a song i found that i can relate to

  • It is so amazing... such a good life lesson
