I was lost and alone
Making my way
Making my way down that long winding road
I had no reason, or rhyme
Like a song out of time
And there you were standing in front of my eyes
How could I be such a fool
To let go of love
And break all of the rules
Girl, when you walked out that door
Left a hole in my heart
And I know for sure....

CHORUS

You're the air that I breathe
Girl, you're all that I need
And I wanna thank you lady
You're the words that I read
You're the light that I see
And Your love is all that I need

I was searching vain
Playing a game
No-one else but myself left to blame
You came into my world
No diamonds, no pearls
Could you ever replace what you gave to me, girl
Just like a castle of sand
Girl, I almost let love slip right out of my hands
And just like a flower needs rain
I will stand by your side through the joy and the pain

CHORUS

You're the air that I breathe
Girl, you're all that I need
And I wanna thank you lady
You're the words that I read
You're the light that I see
And I wanna thank you lady

(You're the air that I breathe)
Air that I breathe
(You're the light that I see)
Light that I see
(And I wanna thank you lady)
I thank you lady
(You're words that I read)
Words that I read
(You're the light that I see)
The light that I see
(And your love is all that I need)
All that I need
Your love is all that I need, girl

Backing vocals repeat chorus till fade

It's not time to make a change
Just relax, take it easy
You're still young, that's your fault
There's so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy

I was once like you are now
And I know that it's not easy
To be calm when you've found
Something going on
But take your time, think a lot
Think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow
But your dreams may not

How can I try to explain?
When I do he turns away again
It's always been the same, same old story
From the moment I could talk
I was ordered to listen
Now there's a way
And I know that I have to go away
I know I have to go

It's not time to make a change
Just sit down, take it slowly
You're still young, that's your fault
There's so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy

All the times that I've cried
Keeping all the things I knew inside
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it
If they were right I'd agree
But it's them they know, not me
Now there's a way
And I know that I have to go away
I know I have to go

What we believe is true

Ronan: No matter how they call us
No matter how they attack
No matter where they take us
We'll find our own way back

Steve: I can't deny what I believe
I can't be what I'm not

I know no matter what

Ronan: If only tears were laughter
If only night was day
If only prayers were answered
Then we would hear God say

Steve: No matter what they tell you

I like the feel of your name on my lips,
and I like the sound of your sweet gentle kiss.
The way that your fingers run through my hair.
And how your scent lingers even when you're not there.

And I like the way your eyes dance when they laugh.
And how you enjoy your two hour bath.
And how you convinced me to dance in the rain
with everyone watching like we were insane.

But I love the way you love me (oh baby).
Strong and wild,
slow and easy,
heart and soul,
and so completely.
I love the way you love me.

And I like the sound of old r&b.
You roll your eyes when I'm slightly off key.
And I like the innocent way that you cry
from sappy old movies you've seen thousands of times.

But I love the way you love me (oh baby).
Strong and wild,
slow and easy,
heart and soul,
and so completely.
I love the way you love me.

And I could list a million things
I love to like about you.
But they all come down to one reason.
I could never live without you.

And I love the way you love me (oh baby).
Strong and wild,
slow and easy,
heart and soul,
and so completely.
I love the way you love me.
