If I could make a wish
I think I'd pass
Can't think of anything I need
No cigarettes, no sleep
No light, no sound
Nothing to eat, no books to read
Making love with you
Has left me peaceful, warm, and tired
What more could I ask
There's nothing left to be desired
Peace came upon me and it leaves me weak
So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep
Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe, yes, to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
(2x - first time w/lead guitar and harmony vocals; second time
with orchestra)
partial verse:
Peace came upon me and it leaves me weak
So sleep, silent angel, go to sleep
(repeat chorus)
(once, w/lead guitar and harmony vocals)
repeat to fade):
Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe, yes, to love you
