Oxygen Lyrics

I came apart inside a world made of angry people
i found a boy who had a dream
making everyone smile
He was sunshine
I fell over my feet
like bricks underwater

how am i supposed to tell you how i feel
i need oxygen
oh baby let me be your lady
i will make you happy
never gonna leave, never gonna leave
oh baby can i be your lady
i am going crazy for you

and so i found a state of mind
where i could be speechless
i had to try it for a while
to figure out this feeling
this felt so right
pull me upside down to a place
where you've been waiting

how am i supposed to tell you how i feel
i need oxygen
oh baby can i be your lady
i will make you happy
im never gonna leave,
never gonna leave
oh baby can i be your lady
i am going crazy for you

you dont wanna keep me waiting
staring at my fingers feeling like a fool

oh baby can i be your lady
i am going crazy
im never gonna leave,
never gonna leave
oh baby let me be your lady
i will make you happy, yeah-ohhhh

tell me what you want,
baby tell me what you need
anything i ask baby give it to me
baby give it to me, give it to me

give it to me, give it to me
baby give it to me give it to me

its about being in love and finding that guy that steals your heart and you just cant get enough of him

To me, this song is about a girl who is in love with a guy. She likes him a lot, and she's not sure how to tell him (hince the "how am i suppose to tell you how i feel"). She wants to be with him, and she's trying to tell him that'd they'd be good together. ("i will make you happy" thing)

Just my opinion :D

I was trying to figure that part out, too.

Is she saying, Ill take care of you ("tell me what you want, baby, tell me what you need"), and you take care of me ("anything I ask, baby, give it to me").

Other than that, I'm out.

i agree with hopeless. this song's so great! i can totally relate to this.. i really am into this guy and we're friends but i don't know how to tell him, everytime i try i can't get to the point and "i need oxygen ."

Cover art for Oxygen lyrics by Colbie Caillat

for me, she meets this decent guy who is different from all the guys she's met or the people around her. she falls for him and, as it is somewhat a new experience to her, she doesn't really know how to cope with it at first. it's all overwhelming and so it takes her some time to figure out her feelings for him. she is trying to tell him now how they would be perfect together. how she could be the girl for him.

I always thought the song was just about the feeling where you go all breathless and you heart starts pounding and you can't really control yourself because you like that person so much and because of that you can't bring yourself to tell this person your feelings. Just my thoughts.

Yeah I agree. To me its about liking someone who is just your friend and you don't know how to tell him how you feel.

eveyone has felt this way right? im not crazy? lol
