Stop to get air (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

refrain

This clue is a double definition.

'stop' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'air' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'to get' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for refrain that I've seen before include "Stop - chorus" , "Chorus; desist" , "Chorus; keep away (from)" , "Lines repeated at the end of each verse" , "recurring phrase" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
