always assumed that they were saying “I am the sun, I am the air.” Y’know, cause they’re magical.
In the original by The Smiths and the Love Spit Love cover (used in the show), the lyrics are both officially “son” and “heir”, but the way they chopped up the song for the theme, they very well could have played on those being homophones such that the “theme” lyrics actually are “sun” and “air”.
Basically backing up the premise of the show which was balancing magic and life.
I am the sun and the air [I'm magical]
I am human and I need to be loved [I'm also a person with a life]
At least that was always my take. Though I’d heard the original Smiths version before the show aired.
OTOH, The Craft ALSO used the Love Spit Love cover but without chopping it up, so maybe they assumed “sun” and “air” like most of us.
