Sometimes it's not air, but love, that you need to surive
I need to make you laugh,
need to hear your laugh.
It's what keeps me going.
I have to keep going.

I need you to move,
need to watch you move.
It's what keeps me going.
I have to keep going.

Just hearing your laugh,
watching you move,
what else could I want?
It's what keeps me going.

Did you know, that without you,
I would be swallowed by darkness,
a horrid nightmare would I be encased.
You are what keeps me going.

I need to kiss you,
need to feel your lips against mine.
It's what keeps me going.
I have to keep going.

I need you to wear that cologne,
need to smell your scent.
It's what keeps me going.
I have to keep going.

Just the feel of your lips against mine,
smelling you as you hold me close,
what else could I want?
It's what keeps me going.

Did you know, that without you,
darkness swallows me whole,
Nightmares surround, encasing me.
You are what keeps me going.

I need to taste you,
need to taste the essence of your body.
It's what keeps me going.
I have to keep going.

You, my love, keep me going,
day after day,
night after night.
You, my love, make me want to live.
