Breathing You In Lyrics
I'm awake
You sleep on and on
When you wake my head is resting on your shoulder
I'm breathing you in
I'm breathing you in
Don't get up I'm in heaven
Close your eyes it's only half past seven
The day's as small as the window
And I'm an inside-outted pillow
Breathing in my, my sleepy girl
Breathing in my, my sleepy girl
What's that over there?
It's nothing at all
We lie awake and listen to the birds in my aviary
I'm breathing you in
I'm breathing you in
Don't get up I'm in heaven
Close your eyes it's only - eleven
The day's as small as the window
And I'm an inside-outted pillow
Breathing in my, my sleepy girl
Breathing in my, my sleepy girl
I'm breathing you in
I'm breathing you in
Breathing in my, my sleepy girl
You sleep on and on
When you wake my head is resting on your shoulder
I'm breathing you in
I'm breathing you in
Close your eyes it's only half past seven
The day's as small as the window
And I'm an inside-outted pillow
Breathing in my, my sleepy girl
It's nothing at all
We lie awake and listen to the birds in my aviary
I'm breathing you in
I'm breathing you in
Close your eyes it's only - eleven
The day's as small as the window
And I'm an inside-outted pillow
Breathing in my, my sleepy girl
I'm breathing you in

It strikes me as a lover, recalling the best times he ever had with his girl. It wasn't the hours of fun and movies, wasn't the dates and the things they had in common, it was times like this: knowing that she was always going to be there, having her sleeping on his shoulder. It was these small things that mattered most to him.
I love this song. My boyfriend and i used to lie in bed some mornings with this song playing and just resting. It always reminded me that it was one of the best times i would have with him and that nothing felt more incredible than lieing in your lovers arms
