about

Like Oxygen. A love song. The title came from a paraphrased quote mentioned in an interview with Sean Langan, a journalist kidnapped by the Taliban. He described the isolation from his family and the daily threat to his life saying that life and the love of his family are like oxygen, you don’t always appreciate them fully until they are under threat.

lyrics

Like Oxygen by Carol Fieldhouse

Drift a while, sleep as the sun sets
Lay down here, the wood pigeon calls
The lilac evening falls heavy with whispers
Ruffling the canopy with its scented breeze

Like oxygen,
Life breathes and I gasp

In your eyes, the warmth of a love song
Touched with the gold of the rising moon
The velvet night stretches above us
Where a billion stars live and die

Like oxygen,
You breathe and I gasp

...where a billion stars live and die

Like oxygen,
You breathe and I gasp,

Like oxygen
Like oxygen

After years rooted in Folk and Early Music, I discovered my musical homeland as a songwriter in 2008. My debut album linen, produced by Boo Hewerdine and recorded by engineer Chris Pepper, was Celtic Music Radio’s Album of the Week in 2016.
