Oxygen Lyrics by Miette Hope

2016

[Verse 1]
Yeah, you're leaving is it alright if I come along?
You take my hand we stumble out on to the damp lawn
And I was hopin' I would see you on a Friday night
To tell you all the things I can't keep off of my mind
I can't keep off of my mind
[Chorus]
Cuz I been afraid of sayin' the wrong thing, of running out of oxygen
What if I stay?
You take away my breath, can tell the air is getting thin
And I don't wanna go home alone
So can you wait until I know my lungs won't explode?
So can you wait until I know my lungs won't explode?
[Verse 2]
The pull's so real that I can feel it pull me towards you
The flashing lights lit up your face across the dark room
And I can feel you like a forest fire spreadin'
I never thought that this would happen
[Chorus]
Cuz I been afraid of sayin' the wrong thing, of running out of oxygen
What if I stay?
You take away my breath, can tell the air is getting thin
And I don't wanna go home alone
So can you wait until I know my lungs won't explode?
So can you wait until I know my lungs won't explode?
[Bridge]
Maybe we could make this last a little longer
Be a little stronger than the ones before
I cannot explain it, but I got a feelin'
Slowly takin' over that I can't ignore
Try to hold on tightly but it's much too fragile
Feelings slip out of my hands on to the floor
Maybe if we slow down, take it by the moment
We won't have to worry 'bout it anymore
[Outro/Chorus]
Cuz I been afraid of sayin' the wrong thing
I been afraid of running out of oxygen
What if I stay? You'll probably take my breath away
But I don't wanna go home alone
I've been afraid
I've been afraid
I've been afraid
(I've been afraid)
Of sayin' the wrong thing
(I've been afraid)
Of running out of oxygen
(I've been afraid)
I don't want to go home alone
(I've been afraid)
So can you wait until I know
So can you wait until I know
(I've been afraid)
So can you wait until I know my lungs won't explode?
