[00:14.61]He looks up from second base
[00:18.10]Dad’s up in the stands
[00:21.64]He saw the hit, the run, the slide
[00:25.22]There ain’t no bigger fan
[00:28.54]In the parking lot after the game
[00:32.07]He said, “Dad I thought you had a plane to catch?”
[00:36.92]He smiled and said, “Yeah, son I did,
[00:40.52]
[00:42.08]But life’s not the breath you take
[00:46.47]The breathing in and out
[00:50.10]That gets you through the day
[00:53.02]Ain’t what it’s all about
[00:56.78]You just might miss the point
[01:00.43]Trying to win the race
[01:04.10]Life’s not the breaths you take
[01:08.33]But the moments that take your breath away.”
[01:15.30]
[01:22.80]Fast-forward fifteen years
[01:26.19]And a thousand miles away
[01:29.95]Boy’s built a life, he’s got a wife
[01:33.62]And a baby due today
[01:36.82]
[01:37.41]He hears a voice saying, “I’ve made it son.”
[01:40.77]Says, “I told you dad
[01:42.54]You didn’t have to come.”
[01:45.59]He smiles and says,
[01:47.10]“Yeah, I know you did.”
[01:50.65]But life’s not the breath you take
[01:55.07]The breathing in and out
[01:58.65]That gets you through the day
[02:02.14]Ain’t what it’s all about
[02:05.39]You just might miss the point
[02:08.76]Trying to win the race
[02:12.74]Life’s not the breaths you take
[02:16.69]But the moments that take your breath away.”
[02:22.72]Just like it took my breath when she was born
[02:27.57]Just like it took my breath away
[02:31.17]When dad took his last that morn’
[02:35.21]
[02:36.64]But life’s not the breath you take
[02:41.19]The breathing in and out
[02:44.89]That gets you through the day
[02:47.78]Ain’t what it’s all about
[02:51.92]You just might miss the point
[02:55.17]If ya don’t slow down the pace
[02:59.11]Life’s not the breaths you take
[03:02.63]But the moments that take your breath away
[03:10.84]
