Coming Up For Air Lyrics

No-one wants to lose,
The magic that’s inside,
All the colours of the rainbow,
And the treasures we hide,
If you want to keep it,
Then tears just aren’t enough,
Don’t live off all your memories,
Start drowning in your love.

Coming up for air
Coming up for air
Breathing in deeply,
Coming up for air

Coming up for air
Coming up for air
Breathing in deeply,
Coming up for air

Somewhere beneath the surface,
Is the deepness of the sea,
When a heart still fills with wonder,
And happiness is free,
Just continue on your journey,
Cause wisdom’s not enough,
Don’t let the waves erode you,
Stop drowning in your love.

Coming up for air
Coming up for air
Breathing in deeply,
Coming up for air

Coming up for air
Coming up for air
Breathing in deeply,
Coming up for air

The air smells good,
The air smells fine,
Release the pressure on my mind.

No-one wants to lose the magic that’s inside.

Coming up for air
Coming up for air
Breathing in deeply,
Coming up for air

Coming up for air
Coming up for air
Breathing in deeply,
Coming up for air

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
