有什麼歌適合在結婚喜宴上播放?被問到這個問題時,我總是先想到R & B天后Toni Braxton(唐妮布雷斯頓)的Breathe Again (再次呼吸)這首歌。
在單曲Un-Break My Heart發行之前,Breathe Again一直是Toni Braxton早期最成功的作品,一舉攻上美國Billboard Hot100第三名、英國單曲榜第二名的位置,為當時電台點播頻率相當高的歌曲,是Toni Braxton的歌裡我最喜歡的一首。Toni Braxton本人也因為這首歌獲得葛萊美獎Best Female R&B Vocal Performance(最佳女性節奏藍調)的肯定。

Breathe Again把一個女人對男人的情意詮釋得很好,有你雙臂的擁抱很好、有你輕柔的親吻很好、聽你說你愛我很好,只要有你在一切都很好,但要是你不在了呢?很簡單,我將無法再呼吸,就像要了我的命一樣。
歌詞帶著些許女人憂慮下的哀傷,但經由歌曲清柔的旋律、Toni Braxton獨特的嗓音和優美的和聲演唱出來,卻反而給人一種期盼的溫馨感,適合在婚宴播放,寄託女人和你一路走來的情意。
嘿!女人嫁給你的那一天,等於把一切都交給你了,你可別走阿。

Toni Braxton–Breathe Again Lyrics
If I never feel you in my arms again
If I never feel your tender kiss again
If I never hear I love you now and then
Will I never make love to you once again
Please understand if love ends
Then I promise you, I promise you
That, that I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
Breathe again
That I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
And I can't stop thinkin' about
About the way things used to be
And I can't stop thinkin' about
About the love that you make to me
And I can't get you outta my head
How in the world will I begin
To let you walk right out my life
And blow my heart away
And I can't stop carin' about
About the apple of my eye
And I can't stop doin' without
Without the center of my life
And I can't get you outta my head
And I know I can't pretend
That I won't die if you decide
You won't see me again
If I never feel you in my arms again
If I never feel your tender kiss again
If I never hear I love you now and then
Will I never make love to you once again
Please understand if love ends
Then I promise you, I promise you
That, that I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
Breathe again
That I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
And I can't stop thinkin' about
About the way my life would be
No I can't stop thinkin' about
How could your love be leavin' me
And I can't get you outta my mind
God knows how hard I tried
And if you walk right out my life
God knows I'd surely die
And I can't stop doin' without
Without the rythm of my heart
No I can't stop doin' without
For I would surely fall apart
And I can't get you outta my mind
Cause I know I can't deny it
And I would die if you decide
You won't see me again
If I never feel you in my arms again
If I never feel your tender kiss again
If I never hear I love you now and then
Will I never make love to you once again
Please understand if love ends
Then I promise you, I promise you
That, that I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
Breathe again
That I shall never breathe again
Breathe again
