Breathe
Faith Hill · 1999
🎤 Sing along
Sing with the chorus
- Caught up in the touch
- Slow and steady rush
- Baby, isn't that the way that love's supposed to be?
Echo the hook
- Being with you gets me that way
- I watch the sunlight dance across your face
- And I've never been this swept away
- All my thoughts just seem to settle on the breeze
