Too much small talk 
Well, my darling, that's bad for our health
Turns your talk so small you'll turn into somebody else
Swimming in the shallow end really ain't getting us far
I want to know where you've been, who you need
Why you laugh, why you cry
I want to know who you are

So, baby, let's get deep
Whisper all our secrets under sheets
Take me where you visit in your dreams
Then kiss me hard like I'm your only oxygen
Oxygen

Now, baby, please
Let me wash my sins deep in your stream
Feels as if you're teaching me to breathe
Baby, please stay close you are my oxygen
My oxygen, yeah

My mama said 
"My, baby, please be careful with your heart
Thugs and thieves and wolves are lurking out there in the dark"
I tried to live a life in fear but that didn't really get me far
I want to know who you are, where you've been
What you need, how you love
I want to know who you are

So, baby, let's get deep
Whisper all our secrets under sheets
Take me where you visit in your dreams
Then kiss me hard like I'm your only oxygen
Oxygen

Now, baby, please
Let me wash my sins deep in your stream
Feels as if you're teaching me to breathe
Baby, please stay close you are my oxygen
My oxygen, yeah

I wanna be what you need, who you need
Whenever you need it I just wanna be there
I wanna be what you need, who you need
Whenever you need it I just wanna be there

I wanna be what you need, who you need
Whenever you need it I just wanna be there
I wanna be what you need, who you need
Whenever you need it I just wanna be there

And if you trust me with spirit
I will trust mine with you
If you fall from the building
I will hold on to you
If you kneel by the river
I will wash over you
I wanna be what you need, who you need
Whenever you need it I just wanna be there

So, baby, let's get deep
Whisper all our secrets under sheets
Take me where you visit in your dreams
Then kiss me hard like I'm your only oxygen (only oxygen)
Oxygen, yeah
