You stepped in, and dark turned to light
Am7 G C G
I knew right there, you were the breath of life
C G C G
Just when I'd given up the fight
Am7 G C G
I knew right there, you were the breath of life
Em Am
Just when the morning air lost its bitter bite
G C D
You never think your heart will butterfly
Em Am
Ballerina, don't you dance your life away
G C D
Those years meant nothing till this cold December day

You stepped back to say goodnight
I knew right there you were the breath of life
We looked up at a blinding light
I knew right there you were the breath of life
I never thought that I could say those words again
I think you know the ones; I'm sure you know the ones
I've been hiding, alone, in the night
On and on like a dream that never ends
C G C G
So come on out, don't say goodnight
Am7 G C G
Out of the shadows to the neon light
C G C G
Meet you down where that Dixieland plays
Am7 G C G
Leave all your troubles, gonna dance 'em away

Drop my hands by my side, let the hours slip away
Don't say nothing, let the music play
C G C G
Twenty years on down when the time is right
Am7 G C G
I'll turn around and know you were the breath of life
