Video I Love: Songs for Breathe

Sharing a few videos today. Here are three songs that remind me of my upcoming release, Breathe: “Breathe (2AM)” by Anna Nalick, “Breathe” by Faith Hill, and “Better Days” by the Goo Goo Dolls.

Anna Nalick’s song has a couple lines that are very much at the core of Lincoln and Jay’s story. And remarkably, I did not think of this song when first writing the book or selecting the title.

Cause you can’t jump the track, we’re like cars on a cable,
And life’s like an hourglass, glued to the table.
No one can find the rewind button, boys,
So cradle your head in your hands,
And breathe… just breathe

The lyrics for “Better Days” really mean something to me when I think of Breathe.

So take these words
And sing out loud
Cuz everyone is forgiven now
Cuz tonight’s the night the world begins again

And it’s someplace simple where we could live
And something only you can give
And thats faith and trust and peace while we’re alive

See the full lyrics

And this part from “Breathe” by Faith Hill:

In a way I know my heart is waking up
As all the walls come tumbling down
I’m closer than I’ve ever felt before
And I know
And you know
There’s no need for words right now

‘Cause I can feel you breathe
It’s washing over me
Suddenly I’m melting into you
There’s nothing left to prove
Baby all we need is just to be
Caught up in the touch
The slow and steady rush
Baby, isn’t that the way that love’s supposed to be
I can feel you breathe
Just breathe

I’m a little excited for this release. Can you tell?

  1. When you first mentioned the title ‘Breathe’ my mind started playing ‘Breathe 2AM’ right away.
