The Air

(album: Back In The Hi-Life - 2003)

If I ever turn away
If I cause you pain
I'll make the tears you cry
Like a river run dry
'Cause I feel your pain like it was my own
My one and only prayer will be
That our hearts will beat as one

You're the air that I breathe
The air that I breathe
Take this empty life I lead
Fill it with the love I need
You're the air that I breathe
The air that I breathe
Now I'm like a bird on the wing
'Cause you unlocked the cage and set me free

If the earth should fall away
From beneath my feet
Still I'd stand on solid ground
Praise you for the love I found
Tomorrow turns to yesterday
But as my hair turns to grey
Still I'll praise you for your saving grace

Somehow, somewhere, someway
(Round and round and back again)
(No beginning and no end)
Somehow, somewhere, someway
(Round and round and back again)
(No beginning and no end)

You're the air that I breathe
The air that I breathe
Take this empty life I lead
Fill it with the love I need
You're the air that I breathe
The air that I breathe
Now I'm like a bird on the wing
'Cause you unlocked the cage and set me free
