"Reason For Breathing"...A Thought In Mind

If I cried like a baby would you change your mind?
If I told you I'm crazy would you come running back to me?
The harder I try to break away, the
more I get lost in yesterday
The man that you know is just a shell,
living without your life is hell

I turn on the radio just to take the hurt away
Another night and I'm missing you
Girl, it's killing me, well

I don't wanna die tonight, but I think I might be going down
'Cause the only one I ever cared about is nowhere to be found
I don't wanna close my eyes 'cause I
might not see the light of day
I'm almost out of air
You're my reason for breathing
You're my reason for breathing

I don't wanna go clubbing, I got no one to dance with me
I don't wanna go shopping, I got no one to spend my money on
Spending my time with one glass of wine
Playing solitaire just to ease my mind
Poured one for you, but I drank that too
Anything to kill the pain of losing you

I turn on the radio just to take the hurt away
Another night and I'm missing you
Girl, it's killing me

So I'm reaching out on this distant line
Hoping deep inside your heart's gonna find a reason
To keep me breathing
But I'm lost in this pain and I don't have much time
I'm so tired of walking this same old line
So I'm taking my pride, gonna throw it aside
Please let me breathe girl, I'm sorry

Baby girl, don't leave me standing here
I'm barely breathing, girl, I'm running out of air

Pfffhhhh... another love song from Babyface, and another killing song. Why's that? Just read the lyrics, and listen to it. You'll get what I mean. But please don't translate them to Indonesian...it would be so dangdut! "dirimu adalah alasan diriku bernapas!" mbuhuhuhu...

Anyway...for me the lyrics is simple, easy to understand but...so deep *or is it only me who feels that way?*. Just think of this one...the sentence "you're the reason for breathing"...how come babyface had that kind of thought in mind? If I were him...I think I might just made it like this : "I'm gonna die if I don't have you!"...see the difference? He's so brilliantly romantic or what?
