I was lost and alone
Trying to grow
Making my way down that long winding road

Had no reason, no rhyme
Like a song out of time
And there you were, standing in front of my eyes


How could i be such a fool
To let go of love and break all of the rules

Girl when you walked down the door
Left a hole in my heart
And now i know for sure


*chorus
Youre the air that i breathe

Girl youre all that i need
And i wanna thank you, lady
Youre the words that i read

Youre the light that i see
And your love is all that i need


I was searching in vain
Playing a game
Had no-one else but myself left to blame

You came into my world
No diamonds or pearls
Could ever replace what you have gave to me girl


Just like a castle sand
Girl, i almost let love slip right out of my hands

And just like a flower needs rain
I will stand by your side through the joy and the pain


*chorus 2x

Youre all that i need, girl

Youre the air that i breathe, yeah
And i want to thank you
( and i want to thank you, lady )


Youre the words that i read, girl
Your love is all that i need, yeah

And i want thank you
( and i want to thank you, lady )


Youre all that i need, girl
Youre the air that i breathe, yeah
And i want to thank you...

( to fade )
