I lie awake and you are on my mind
The oceans between us and the time
All I long for is you
Tell me what else can I do
Till you come back to me and you are by my side

Then I hear your voice
And the sun shines all around
Your laugh your smile
The happiness I’ve found
There is nothing else dear that I want in my life
You are the air, the breath that makes my heart alive   

Then once again I find myself alone
The emptiness the silence of the phone
While you’re so far away
I am counting down the days
Till I am by your side and my heart’s back at home

Then I hear your voice
And the sun shines all around
Your laugh your smile
The happiness I’ve found
There is nothing else dear that I want in my life
You are the air, the breath that makes my heart alive

Then you say you love me
My heart is open wide
When I say I love you too
My heart sings so inside
There is nothing my love that I want in my life
You are the air, the breath that makes my heart alive
