Oxygen Lyrics
Take a good look around
Breathe in a little oxygen
Sweet water taste
On the tip of your tongue
Send up a prayer for the less unfortunate
Think how lucky you are to be right here
Right here
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e86505-ruby_summer~oxygen_lyrics.html ]
Met a man whose one procession
Was a black overcoat
Full of buttons and pins
One pin for every state every carnival
Every election he had voted in
Said the coat was his blanket and his memories
As he spoke of better days ahead
Said thanks for spending
Your time with me
And I'm tellin' you verbatim
This is what he said
Take a good look around
Breathe in a little oxygen
Sweet water taste
On the tip of your tongue
Send up a prayer for the less unfortunate
Think how lucky you are to be right here
Right here
Cause bein' right here
Is really all there is
If you live in the past
Then you're sure to miss
That perfect moment
When the perfect smile
Turns into the perfect kiss
He said goodbye
And headed under the overpass
Out to the beach
Where the seagulls play
Reached in his pocket
And through out some bread crumbs
Opened his arms as if he could fly away
Away
I'll never forget
The day I met the man
With the friendly smile
And such a beautiful face
Take a good look around
Breathe in a little oxygen
Sweet water taste
On the tip of your tongue
Send up a prayer for the less
Unfortunate
Think how lucky you are to be right here
Take a good look around
Breathe in a little oxygen
Sweet water taste
On the tip of your tongue
Send up a prayer for the less
Unfortunate
Think how lucky you are to be right here
Right here
Take a good look around
Breathe in a little oxygen
Sweet water taste
On the tip of your tongue
Send up a prayer for the less
Unfortunate
Think how lucky you are to be right here
Right here
