Pet Shop Boys - Breathing Space lyrics

When your heart is out of love And you're feeling left behind Seems the fates aren't on your side And the fog has left you blind When the pressure's pulling different ways Finds you longing for some empty days I stop for some breathing space I pause in the public race Take time from all the time it takes To make up for all the big mistakes I gotta get out I gotta get out When your life runs out of steam And you need a little time If your muse is out of luck You might need an extra rhyme When your heart escapes your head and waits In the growing queue that life creates I stop for some breathing space Divert from the public race Return to a private place I know it's there just in case I gotta get out I gotta get out Far far away I'm goin' Far far away I gotta get out (Oh-oh oh oh oh) I gotta get out (Oh-oh oh oo oo) There's a place beyond this world Where the mountains meet the sky It's a different state of mind Like a dream where you can fly Can I tell you this in confidence? I need to regain that old innocence I stop for some breathing space Divert from the public race Return to a private place I know it's there just in case I gotta get out I gotta get out
