The air that I breathe

were we just two ships
passing in the night?

or is there a way
to make this all right

as I look back over my shoulder
and see you fade into the distance

we once floated side by side
in perfect harmony

but our engines they grew weary
and you pulled away from me

and I cannot bare to see you go
because by your side I breathe

the oxygen that you were
providing life to me

you're fading fast near out of sight
what can I do to make this right

the air I breathe 
that's what I need

and you're the one
who provided for me
