Oxygen Lyrics

I came apart inside a world made of angry people
I found a boy who had a dream making everyone smile
He was sunshine; I fell over
My feet like bricks underwater

And how am I supposed to tell you how I feel?
I need oxygen

Oh baby, if I was your lady
I would make you happy
I'm never gonna leave, never gonna leave
Oh baby, I will be your lady
I am going crazy for you

And so I found a state of mind where I could be speechless
I had to try it for a while to figure out this feeling
This felt so right; pull me upside
Down to a place where you've been waiting

And how am I supposed to tell you how I feel?
I need oxygen

Oh baby, if I was your lady
I would make you happy
I'm never gonna leave, never gonna leave
Oh baby, I will be your lady
I am going crazy for you

And you don't wanna keep me waiting
Staring at my fingers feeling like a fool

Oh baby, I will be your lady
I will make you happy
I'm never gonna leave, never gonna leave
Oh baby, I will be your lady
I am going crazy, yeah, oh

Tell me what you want
Baby, tell me what you need
Anything I ask, baby, give it to me
Baby, give it to me, give it to me

I came apart inside a world made of angry people
I found a boy who had a dream making everyone smile
