It Only Hurts When I'm Breathing

Written by Shania Twain/R.J. Lange

Hope life's been good to you
since you've been gone
I'm doin' fine now - I've finally moved on
It's not so bad - I'm not so sad

I'm not surprised just how well I survived
I'm over the worst, and i feel so alive
I can't complain - I'm free again

Chorus

And it only hurts when I'm breathing
My heart only breaks when it's beating
My dreams only die when I'm dreaming
So, I hold my breath - to forget

Don't think I'm lyin' 'round cryin' at night
There's no need to worry, Im really all right
I've never looked back - as a matter of fact

Repeat Chorus

It only hurts when I breathe

Mmmm, no I've never look back -
as a matter of fact

Repeat Chorus

Hurts when I'm breathing
Breaks when it's beating
Die when I'm dreaming
It only hurts when I breathe
