Oxygen

Steffany Gretzinger

You are my oxygen
You're making me wanna live again
You are my oxygen
You're making me wanna live again

Sometimes my very best
Is only my weakest yes
You see strength in every movement
Baby steps and short breaths
Anything is progress
You sustain my every moment

You are my oxygen
You're making me wanna live again
You are my oxygen
You're making me wanna live again!

Sometimes my very best
Is only my weakest yes
You see strength in every movement
Baby steps and short breaths
Anything is progress
You sustain my every moment

My lifeblood, my true love
My reason, my because
My hope when I'm hopeless
You never run out, You're the source of it
The moon in my night sky
My vision when I'm blind
When I quit, You still fight
You fight for me

Sometimes my very best
Is only my weakest yes
You see strength in every movement
Baby steps and short breaths

Anything is progress
You sustain my every moment
