If I had a world to give and
If I have a life to live
Would you come to me
Would you come to me?

And if I have a time in her
Spilled up in grains of sand
Would you be with me
Would you be with me?

You see that everything I do
Still leaves me lost an long for you...

If I can find some time
And a place to hide
I can sit right down and free my mind
One breath away
One breath away
And I know the past is dead and gone
Wasted in motions carried on
One breath away
One breath away
Ideal

When you took me by the hand
You touched a child inside the man
And I was free
Yes, I was me
But then I took a different turn
And now a child begins to burn
'cause I'm angry
'cause I can feel

You see that everything I do
Still leaves me lost and long for you...

If I can find some time
And a place to hide
I can sit right down
And free my mind
One breath away
One breath away
And I know the past is dead and gone
Wasted in motions carried on
One breath away
One breath away
Ideal

Here comes the pressure
And it's coming down hard
My spirit's fading
But I'm still gonna fight (2x)

If I can find some time
And a place to hide
I can sit right down
And free my mind
One breath away
One breath away
And I know the past id dead and gone
Wasted in motions carried on
One breath away
One breath away
Ideal
Oh Yeah
One breath away
And it's hardest breath to take
Ideal

Billy Idol

Billy Idol is an English rock musician, songwriter and actor. Born in Stanmore, Middlesex, Idol first achieved fame in the punk rock era as a member of the band Generation X. Unlike other British punk rock artists of his era, Idol was inspired by The Beatles and The Rolling Stones.

Idol then embarked on a successful solo career, and was a member of the MTV-driven “Second British Invasion” of the United States. A series of music videos for songs such as “Dancing With Myself”, “White Wedding”, “Rebel Yell” and “Eyes Without a Face” made him one of the first MTV stars. Idol continues to tour with guitarist Steve Stevens.

Idol’s 1987 release, “Mony Mony” reached #1 on the US top 40 charts; his songs to chart in the top 10 include: White Wedding, Eyes Without a Face, To Be a Lover and Cradle of Love.
