Give me the world and I will turn it down,
Can't think of anything I need,
No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound
Nothing to eat, no books to read.

Sometimes,
All I need is the air that I breathe,
And to love you,
All I need is the air that I breathe,
And to love you,
All I need is the air that I breathe...

Peace comes upon me and it leaves me weak
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,
And to love you,
All I need is the air that I breathe...

Peace comes upon me and it leaves me weak
Sleep, silent angel, go to sleep

Making love with you
Has left me peaceful, warm and tired
What more could I ask
There's nothing left to be desired.

Sometimes,
All I need is the air that I breathe,
And to love you,
All I need is the air that I breathe,
And to love you,
All I need is the air that I breathe...
