[stylist] Song Lyric: You Are the Air

[Barbara Hammel]

How about instead of clinging to me, you use right beside me?
Since you only use the singular of moonrise, maybe just put sunset?
Barbara



Let every nation know whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay 
any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose 
any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty.--John 
F. Kennedy

Hi friends,

This lyric is giving me trouble. The refrain is good and the bridge is
OK. But the verses don't seem up to the level of the refrain. Any
suggestions would be welcome.

You Are the Air

I'm not much for talk,
Words always confuse me.
I'd much rather walk
With you clinging to me
And muse over sunsets and moonrise
And how they compare to your eyes.

You are the air that I breathe,
The sunshine that warms my face,
The starlight that guides my way.
Without you I'm nothing, I'm nowhere,
'Cause you, you are the air I breathe.

Whenever you're near
I can't be romantic.
But if you aren't here
I just seem to panic
Until you come back and I hold you
And even though I've never told you,

You are the air that I breathe,
The sunshine that warms my face,
The starlight that guides my way.
Without you I'm nothing, I'm nowhere,
'Cause you, you are the air I breathe.

And living with you, life's a song.
Yes, days can be hard, nights are long.
But looking at you, I recall
My reasons to think life's a ball
You are them all.

You are the air that I breathe,
The sunshine that warms my face,
The starlight that guides my way.
Without you I'm nothing, I'm nowhere,
'Cause you, you are the air I breathe.

You are the air that I breathe,
You are the miracle of love to me.
