    Song Lyrics 

    Breathlessly


    Ceaselessly, Endlessly, Tirelessly, Breathlessly


    Ceaselessly- Searching for rhymes in the night

    Endlessly- Blind now that reason took flight

    Tirelessly- Racing paths criss-cross the sky

    Breathlessly- Outrunning well-meaning lies


    Knowingly- What if the search is in vain ?

    Fleetingly- Meaning escaped this strange game

    Carelessly- Providence lost in some glory

    Secretly- Losing our place in the story


    Breathlessly, breathlessly,

    Breathlessly, breathlessly


    Slowly, Calmly


    Ceaselessly- Something exists in between

    Endlessly- What we sense cannot be seen

    Tirelessly- Sounds carry true to our ears

    Breathlessly- Messages bound to be clear


    Ceaselessly- Searching for rhymes in the night

    Endlessly- Blind now that reason took flight

    Tirelessly- Racing paths criss-cross the sky

    Breathlessly- Outrunning well-meaning lies


    Knowingly- What if the search is in vain?

    Fleetingly- Meaning escaped this strange game

    Carelessly- Providence lost in some glory

    Secretly- Losing our place in the story


    Breathlessly, breathlessly,

    Breathlessly, breathlessly


    Slowly, Calmly


    Ceaselessly- Shall we start speaking in tongues?

    Tirelessly- Now that our minds are undone

    Endlessly- Something exists in between

    Breathlessly- Follow don’t search for your dreams
