Coming Up for Air - John Illsley

Used to sleep with one eye open but not right now

Given up the smoking so I’m feeling proud

There’s a 1000 thorns for every rose

That’s the life and so it goes

There’s a grain of truth in every line

But the truth gets blurred time after time

Every beat of your heart rings true

Every day in your life’s brand new

I’m just coming up for air

Coming up for air

Shifting gears shifting time

Left so many traces down the line

It was a long time dusty road

Need to watch how the river flows

I’m just coming up for air

Coming up for air
