‘No Air’
If I should die before I wake,
It's 'cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like living in a world with no air, oh...
I'm here alone, didn't wanna leave,
My heart won't move, it's incomplete
Wish there was a way that I could make you understand...
[[Bridge]]
But how do you expect me to live alone with just me?
Cause my world revolves around you, it's so hard for me to breathe.
[[Chorus]]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air?
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water, so deep
Tell me, how you gon' breathe without me?
If you ain't here I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
[[Verse 2]]
I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew
Right off the ground to float to you
There's no gravity to hold me down,
for real.
But somehow I'm still alive inside
You took my breathe, but I survived
I don't how, but I don't even care
[[Bridge]]
So how do you expect me to live alone with just me? 'Cause my world
revolves around you, it's so hard for me to breathe.
[[Chorus]]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air?
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water, so deep
Tell me, how you gon' breathe without me?
If you ain't here I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air
No air, air
No air, air
No air,
No air, air
No more
It's no air, no air
Oh!!
[[Bridge]]
But how do you expect me to live alone with just me? 'Cause my world
revolves around you, it's so hard for me to breathe.
[[Chorus]]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air?
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water, so deep
Tell me, how you gon' breathe without me?
If you ain't here I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air
[[Bridge]]
But how do you expect me to live alone with just me? 'Cause my world
revolves around you, it's so hard for me to breathe.
[[Chorus]]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air?
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water, so deep
Tell me, how you gon' breathe without me?
If you ain't here I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
...
No air...
