Ben Folds Five - Air lyrics

[Ben Folds Five - Air lyrics]

Saw a silhouette across a fluorescent
Floating overhead, undoing his helmet
Through the murky beams and
Blue-green sea life
I saw him spinnin' towards the moonlight

I pull him in, he wasn't breathin'
His eyes were wide and I saw two of me there
There's an ugly buzz that hovers
Just above the quiet
Found a way to make it silent

I'm comin' up for air i'm comin' up for air
I'm comin' up for air

Air air

They hold my hand and ask me to pull through
A voice I know says
"Dear, he probably can't hear you"

Comin' up for air comin' up for air
I'm comin' up for air
