Modern English
Coming Up for Air
No one wants to lose
The magic that's inside
All the colours of the rainbow
And the treasures we hide
If you want to keep it
Then tears just aren't enough
Don't live off all your memories
Start drowning in your love

Coming up for air

Breathing in deeply
Coming up for air

Coming up for air
Coming up for air
Breathing in deeply
Coming up for air

Somewhere beneath the surface
Is the deepness of the sea
When a heart still fills with wonder
And happiness is free
Just continue on your journey
'Cause wisdom's not enough
Don't let the waves erode you
Stop drowning in your love
Coming up for air
Coming up for air
Breathing in deeply
Coming up for air

Coming up for air
Coming up for air
Breathing in deeply

The air smells good
The air smells fine
Release the pressure on my mind

No one wants to lose the magic that's inside

Coming up for air
Coming up for air
Breathing in deeply
Coming up for air
