"Breathe (Reprise)" is a song on Pink Floyd's album Dark Side of The Moon that is a recapitulation, with different lyrics, of the song "Breathe". Lasting just over one minute, the reprise is merged with the song "Time" to which it serves as a coda. During recording, it was called "Home Again".

When the song ends the reverberations of the final note resound for about a second before the piano of "The Great Gig in the Sky".

When Pink Floyd reunited for the Live 8 concert, they combined "Breathe", and "Breathe (Reprise)", something they had never done before, although Sea of Green had previously covered the song in this manner on their 2001 album Time to Fly.

The song features on David Gilmour's 2007 DVD, Remember That Night. This is the only instance of the song being given a separate track number to "Time" on an official release.
