I take each breath as if it is my first
I hold it there deep inside me
Until I'm 'bout to burst
I speak each word as if it is your name
I move my lips, taste the moment
Still it sounds the same
Your hand moves and so does mine
Our hearts beat
Our bodies keeping time

You are my oxygen
I breathe you in, I breathe you out
You are my oxygen, you are my love
You are what life's about

I take each breath as if it is my last
You never know what came so slowly
Could leave us oh so fast
I take each step as if it is to you
I hear your voice, I feel your presence
In everything I do
My body sleeps, your lips revive
Our eyes meet and I know I'm alive

You are my oxygen
I breathe you in, I breathe you out
You are my oxygen, you are my love
You are what life's about

The air is thick, the flowers sweet
The shadow comes down
Tonight the moon is at my feet
And I breathe you in
I breathe you in... to me

And I'm nobody without you
If you were not here what would I do

You are my oxygen
I breathe you in, I breathe you out
You are my oxygen, you are my love
You are what life's about
