"Breathe Again" is the third single released from Toni Braxton's multi-platinum debut album, Toni Braxton (1993). This R&B ballad garnered heavy airplay during 1993 and 1994 resulting in it being the most successful single released from the album. The Babyface-written and -produced single peaked at number three on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and number four on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks and Adult Contemporary charts.

The accompanying music video directed by Randee St. Nicholas was filmed in black and white. The concept was Braxton running through a maze clearing her thoughts of a special kind of love. The lyric evokes a sense of nostalgia from a relationship that has run its course. The song earned Braxton her second consecutive Grammy Award for "Best Female R&B Vocal Performance" in 1995.
