Coming Up For Air - Patty Larkin

We are surrounded by so much water

That we might as well get a boat

Or we could swim like Neptune's daughters

To the other side of the moat

Coming up for air

Rising to a very new

Somewhere

Coming up for air

On the last breath around

We are sleeping in a canyon

Where the walls rise up to the sky

We could reach the rim by standing

And begin to breathe with a sigh

Coming up for air

Rising to a very new

Somewhere

Coming up for air

On the last breath around

We are swaying like a willow

That is weeping over the view

We could wave goodbye

And fly into the hills

And into the blue

Coming up for air

Rising to a very new

Somewhere

Coming up for air

On the last breath around

On the last breath around

On the last breath around
