I Hear Her Breathe

[Verse One]
She's been asleep for some time now
In a world of glass and paper doubt
The doc explains in the best way he knows how
That the cancer found its way in through our mouths

[Chorus]
Wake from your sleep, precious one
Wake up, now
I can hear her breathe
But she's calling back to me
And when she speaks
Can we live with what we've done, oh
She's moving and I am terrified
That we can't hear the whisper

[Verse Two]
If I make it to morning
And some how believe it was fear
That turned my dreams to doubt
But her cancer, I ate from my Father who waits
Cause she wants to sing again

[Chorus]
Wake from your sleep, precious one
Wake up, now
I can hear her breathe
But she's calling back to me
And when she speaks
Can we live with what we've done, oh
She's moving and I am terrified
That we can't hear the whisper

[Bridge]
What kind of son would I be
If I let her sleep?
What kind of brother would I be
If I let her sleep?
Well she's gonna speak

I can hear her breathe
She's calling back to me
And when she speaks
Can we live with what we've done, oh
She's moving and I am terrified
That we can't hear the whisper
