A Bottle of Air LYRICS by Leo Dale

I stretch in the morning as I wake
Scrub my skin and manicure the ache
I can hear whispers of the day ahead
Before I open my eyes, while I'm still in bed
A quiet time, lying alone, the very early morning when I haven't got a care
And in-between each long deep pause, I lie and drink a bottle of air

You're in the shower and I hear you sing:
"Who knows what tomorrow may bring"
You tell me your plans for a weekend away:
"Blankets, pillows, a dip in the bay"
A quiet time together again
Your head in my lap, my hands in your hair.
and in-between the sleeplessness
A long cool drink from a bottle of air.

A bottle of air, a bottle of air, a long cool drink from a bottle of air
A bottle of air, a bottle of air, you're like a long cool drink from a bottle of air

I got the note said you'd been here
Next to it was a strand of your hair
You'd come and gone before I could say:
"Forget what you planned, why don't ya just stay?"
It's quiet here now, without a sound
But I always know when you've been around
When I think of you, no matter where
Its like a drink from a bottle of air

A bottle of air, a bottle of air, a long cool drink from a bottle of air
A bottle of air, a bottle of air, you're like a long cool drink from a bottle of air

A bottle of air, a bottle of air, I lie and drink from a bottle of air
A bottle of air, a bottle of air, you're like a long cool drink from a bottle of air
