When the waves come crashing down
And you feel you're gonna drown
I swear I'll be there to pull you out
And there'll be hard times, there'll be pain
Whatever obstacles we face
We can do it all our way
You're the oxygen I need to survive
When I'm running out of air
You'll be there by my side
And now I'm begging you please
Don't take this life, life from me
When it's the only thing I need
Ohh
You're the air that I breathe
So I will be there by your side
Even when your hope has died
I won't let this ship capsize
And if you're straight too far from shore
And you're lost without a cause
I'll be your angel through it all
You're the oxygen I need to survive
When I'm running out of air
You'll be there by my side
Now I'm begging you please
Don't take this life, life from me
When it's the only thing I need
Ohh
You're the air that I breathe
