The air tonight
is rarefied
It's all I need
the air I breathe

You're burnin' all my bridges baby
set your sights as low as they can go
that much I know

You take up all my time little woman
you take up all my time
you say your sun don't shine little honey
you want a piece of mine
The air is thin up here little darling
the air is thin up here
but I won't shed no tears little sisters
I won't shed no tears

You're burnin' all my bridges baby
set your sights as low as they can go
that much I know
say you won't be a friend of mine
but you can't be my lover
'cause you take up all my time
Yeah!

('Cause you take up all my time!) x2

The clock says 5 am little honey
the clock says 5 am
but you're just coming in little sister
you're just coming in
the air is thin up here little darling
the air is thin up here
but I won't shed no tears little honey
I won't shed no tears

You're burnin' all my bridges baby
set your sights as low as they can go
that much I know
Say you won't be a friend of mine
but you'll never be my lover
'cause you take up all my time
Yeah!
