Woah-oh-oh-oh
It's always a good time
Woah-oh-oh-oh
It's always a good time
Woke up on the right side of the bed
What's up with this Prince song inside my head?
Hands up if you're down to get down tonight
Cuz it's always a good time.
Slept in all my clothes like I didn't care
Hopped into a cab, take me anywhere
I'm in if you're down to get down tonight
Cuz it's always a good time
Good morning and good night
I'll wake up at twilight
It's gonna be alright
We don't even have to try
It's always a good time
Woah-oh-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh
It's always a good time
Woah-oh-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh
We don't even have to try, it's always a good time.
Freaked out dropped my phone in the pool again
Checked out of my room hit the ATM
Let's hang out if you're down to get down tonight
Cuz it's always a good time
Good morning and good night
I'll wake up at twilight
It's gonna be alright we don't even have to try
It's always a good time.
Woah-oh-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh
It's always a good time
Woah-oh-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh
We don't even have to try, it's always a good time.
Woah-oh-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh
It's always a good time
Woah-oh-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh
We don't even have to try, it's always a good time.
Doesn't matter when
It's always a good time then
Doesn't matter where
It's always a good time there
Doesn't matter when,
It's always a good time then
It's always a good time
Woah-oh-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh
It's always a good time
Woah-oh-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh
We don't even have to try, it's always a good time
Woah-oh-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh
It's always a good time
Woah-oh-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh-oh
The stars lean down to kiss you
And I lie awake and miss you
Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere
'Cause I'll doze off safe and soundly
But I'll miss your arms around me
I'd send a postcard to you, dear
'Cause I wish you were here
I'll watch the night turn light-blue
But it's not the same without you
Because it takes two to whisper quietly
The silence isn't so bad
'Til I look at my hands and feel sad
'Cause the spaces between my fingers
Are right where yours fit perfectly
I'll find repose in new ways
Though I haven't slept in two days
'Cause cold nostalgia
Chills me to the bone
But drenched in vanilla twilight
I'll sit on the front porch all night
Waist-deep in thought because
When I think of you I don't feel so alone
I don't feel so alone, I don't feel so alone
As many times as I blink
I'll think of you tonight
I'll think of you tonight
When violet eyes get brighter
And heavy wings grow lighter
I'll taste the sky and feel alive again
And I'll forget the world that I knew
But I swear I won't forget you
Oh, if my voice could reach
Back through the past
I'd whisper in your ear
Oh darling, I wish you were here
Sands and gears, oh, how the daisies bloom
When chandeliers light up the engine room
Can you feel the drops as it starts to rain
There's an underwater Ferris wheel
Where I found the missing link to this island chain
Home will always be here on sea, out of sight
Where I disappear and hide
I think dreamy things as I'm waving goodbye
So I'll spread out my wings and fly
Home is a boxcar and it's so far out of reach
Hidden under umbrella beach
Home will always be here on sea, out of sight
Where I disappear and hide
I think dreamy things as I'm waving goodbye
So I'll spread out my wings and fly
I'll spread my wings and fly
Home is a boxcar and it's so far out of reach
Don't remind me
That some days I'm the windshield
And other days I'm just a lucky bug
These cold iron rails
Leave old mossy trails
Through the countryside
The crow and the beanfield
are my best friends, but boy I need a hug
(Boy I need a hug)
'Cause my heart stops without you
There's something about you
That makes me feel alive
If the green left the grass on the other side
I would make like a tree and leave
But if I reached for your hand, would your eyes get
wide
Who knew the other side could be so green
Don't remind me
I'm a chickadee in love with the sky
But that's clearly not a lot to crow about
'Cause when the stars silhouette me
I'm scared they'll forget me and flicker out
I taste honey but I haven't seen the hive
Yeah, I didn't look, I didn't even try
But still my heart stops without you
There's something about you
That makes me feel alive
If the green left the grass on the other side
I would make like a tree and leave
But if I reached for your hand, would your eyes get
wide
Who knew the other side could be so green
We are honey and the bee
Backyard of butterflies surrounded me
I fell in love with you like bees to honey
Let's up and leave the weeping to the willow tree
And pour our tears in the sea
I swear!
There's a lot of vegetables out there
That crop up for air
Yeah, I never thought
We were two peas in a pod
To be suddenly bloomed
And I knew that I'd always love you
Oh, I'll always love you too
If the green left the grass on the other side
I would make like a tree and leave
But if I reached for your hand, would your eyes get
wide
Who knew the other side could be so green
If the green left the grass on the other side
I would make like a tree and leave
But if I reached for your hand, would your eyes get
wide
Who knew the other side could be so green
If I reached for your hand for the rest of my life
Light up the sky, shy violet angel eyes
Light up the sky, shy violet angel eyes
She dried my eyes and drifted off
While every tear was held aloft
The heavy rain clouds felt terrible
'Cause she made my stormy sky beautiful
Light up the sky, shy violet angel eyes
Light up the sky, shy violet angel eyes (Beautiful)
Light up the sky, shy violet angel eyes (Beautiful)
Light up the sky, shy violet angel eyes
Beautiful
[VERSE 1]
Close your tired eyes
Relax and then
Count from one to ten
and open them
All the heavy thoughts will try to weigh you down
But not this time
Way up in the air
You're finally free
And you can stay up there
Right next to me
All this gravity will try to pull you down,
But not this time[CHORUS]
When the sun goes down and the lights burn out
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light
'Cause its time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So shine no matter where you are... tonight
Woah, Woah, Woah
Brighter than a shooting star
Shine no matter where you are... tonight[VERSE 2]
Gaze into my eyes when the fire starts
And fan the flame so hot it melts our hearts
All the pouring rain will try to put it out,
But not this time
Let your colors burn and brightly burst
Into a million sparks that all disperse
And illuminate a world that will try to bring you down,
but not this time[CHORUS]
When the sun goes down and the lights burn out
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light
'Cause its time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So shine no matter where you are... tonight
Woah, Woah, Woah
Brighter than a shooting star
Shine no matter where you are... tonight[BRIDGE]
A thousand heartbeats beat in time
And makes this dark planet come alive
So when the lights flicker out tonight
You gotta shine[CHORUS]
When the sun goes down and the lights burn out
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light
'Cause its time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star
So shine no matter where you are... tonight
Woah, Woah, Woah
Brighter than a shooting star
Met a girl in the parking lot
And all I did was say hello
Her pepper spray made it rather hard
For me to walk her home
But I guess that's the way it goes
Tell me again, was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye?
Didn't you know love could shine this bright?
Well, smile because you're the deer in headlights
Met a girl with a graceful charm
But when beauty met the beast he froze
Got the sense I was not her type
By the black eye and bloody nose
But I guess that's the way it goes
Tell me again, was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye?
Didn't you know love could shine this bright?
Well, smile because you're the deer in headlights
It's suffocating to say
But the female mystique takes my breath away
So give me a smile or give me a sneer
'Cause I'm trying to guess here
Tell me again, was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye?
Didn't you know love could shine this bright?
I'm sorry I ever tried, you're the deer in headlights
Tell me again, was it love at first sight
When I walked by and you caught my eye?
Didn't you know love could shine this bright?
If life was a game you would never play nice
If love was a beam, you'd be blind in both eyes
Put your sunglasses on
'Cause you're the deer in the headlights
You're the deer in the headlights
It's Christmas and we walk alone
Two strangers with no one to miss us
On our own
Out in the cold trudging onward
Braving a harsh winter storm
You and I met passing by
And now our spirits feel warm
I don't have anyone at home to talk to
And you don't have anything to do
So I'll spend my Christmas with you
I'll spend my Christmas with you
Its Christmas and we are in love
With the way that the soft snowflakes kiss us
From far above the blustery breeze
Trudging onward
Braving a harsh winter storm
You and I met passing by
And now our spirits feel warm
I believe that Jesus is truly the only way
And I celebrate Christmas because it's his birthday
I don't have anyone at home to talk to
And you don't have anything to do
So I'll spend my Christmas with you
I'll spend my Christmas with you
I'll spend my Christmas with you
I'll spend my Christmas with you
Are you out there?
Where the rainy days begin.
To feel rather sad,
And the walls are closing in, like the darkness around me.
It's so hard to look away when the daylight doesn't ever stay.
Above this dull apartment view,
Oh I will surround you.
It's quite clear, that I'm stuck here.
So I'll devise a plan and cut out a door,
In my new living room floor.
The porch light is so bright,
That I will quickly sneak down the dark metal shape,
Of the rusty fire escape.
I bought a one way ticket, cause I knew I'd never see the ground.
Unless I was aboard a jet plane, and we were going down.
When I wiped the tears from my eyes, the warm water took me by
surprise.
And I woke up beside the ocean, and I realized,
I must be in California.
Aloha, my happy westcoast friends.
Do you feel alive, when the breaking waves arive, and rush all
around you.
The beach homes and ocean sight are quite well known by the
evening tide.
And we can sleep where we reside, with redwoods around us
The blue air, is up there. And could I bring it down I'd bottle it up
and save it for a sweet summer night.
I bought a one way ticket, 'Cause I know I'd never see the ground.
Unless I was aboard a jet plane and we were going down.
When I wiped the tears from my eyes, the warm water took me by
surprise.
And I woke up beside the ocean, and realized.
I must be in California.(x2)
Am I awake or is this just a dream?
The new year, is out here, and I will make a lovely list of your
charms, so I never feel alone in your arms.
My rock candy passion
Is bittersweet and onto the teeth
'Cause she would rather fall in chocolate
Than fall in love, especially with me
I stood under the waterfall
With a Kiwi pineapple parasol
A Cinderella dropped a crystal ball
And made a concrete cavern
A caterpillar concert hall
I wish that we could sail our sad days away forever
In deep blue seas of paper-mache
Let's dance in the moonlight
A barracuda chased our dog days away forever
Let's sink or swim 'til we fall in love
And dance in the moonlight
When we join the yacht club
I would rather go swimming with great white sharks
Than wade in romance
'Cause I can never find the courage
To ask her to dinner or even to dance
Let's dance in the moonlight
Don't sweat under your overcoat
'Cause my heart can't harbor this paddle boat
You'll hit the bottom of the highest note
And the chatty tree frogs
Will never wanna leave your throat
I wish that we could sail our sad days away forever
In deep blue seas of paper-mache
Let's dance in the moonlight
A barracuda chased our dog days away forever
Let's sink or swim 'til we fall in love
And dance in the moonlight
When we join the yacht club
Let go of the world you know
And plug in the party lights
Soak your cares in the solar flares
That light up these island nights
Orange eclipse, I can taste your lips
In the citrus afternoon
If you can fly, don't stop at the sky
'Cause there's footprints on the moon
It was you
I wish that we could sail our sad days away forever
In deep blue seas of paper-mache
Let's dance in the moonlight
A barracuda chased our dog days away forever
Let's sink or swim 'til we fall in love
And dance in the moonlight
When we join the yacht club
Let's dance in the moonlight
Welcome back winter once again
And put on your warm fuzzy sweater
'Cause you'll feel much better when
The snowflakes fall gently to the ground
The temperature drops and your shivers
Freeze all the rivers around
But I keep you warm
If speed's a pro, inertia must be a con
'Cause the cold wind blows
At precise rates
When I've got my ice skates on
If all the roads were paved with ice
That wouldn't thaw or crack
I could skate from Maine to Nebraska
Then on to Alaska and back
'Cause you keep me warm
Peer over the edge, can you see me?
Rivulets flow from your eyes
Paint runs from your mouth like a waterfall
And your lungs crystallize
I'll travel the sub-zero tundra
I'll break glaciers and frozen lakes
And that's just the tip of the iceberg
I'll do whatever it takes to change
Farewell powdery paradise
We'd rather skate on the thinnest ice
Fingers failed us before they froze
Frostbite bit down on all our toes
Snow drifts build up and enfold us
As we wait in this winter storm
So we snuggle close in the darkness
And keep each other so warm
I wish I could cross my arms
And cross your mind 'cause I believe
You'd unfold your paper heart
And wear it on your sleeve
All my life I wish I broke mirrors
Instead of promises
'Cause all I see is a shattered conscience
Staring right back at me
I wish I had covered all my tracks completely
'Cause I'm so afraid
Is that the light at the far end of the tunnel
Or just the train?
Lift your arms, only Heaven knows
Where the danger grows and it's safe to say
There's a bright light up ahead
And help is on the way, help is on the way
I forget the last time I felt brave
I just recall insecurity
'Cause it came down like a tidal wave
And sorrow swept over me
Depression, please cut to the chase
And cut a long story short
Oh, please be done, how much longer
Can this drama afford to run?
Fate looks sharp, severs all my ties
And breaks whatever doesn't bend
But sadly then, all my heavy hopes
Just pull me back down again
I forget the last time I felt brave
I just recall insecurity
'Cause it came down like a tidal wave
And sorrow swept over me
Then I was given grace and love
I was blind but now I can see
'Cause I found a new hope from above
And courage swept over me
It hurts just to wake up
Whenever you're wearing thin
Alone on the outside
So tired of looking in
The end is uncertain
And I've never been so afraid
But I don't need a telescope
To see that there's hope
And that makes me feel brave
Wake up on your own
And look around you because you are not alone
Release your high hopes and they a´ll survive
because this is the future and you are alive
Dive in and swim away
From your loneliness and miserable days
And when you wake up on your own
Look around you cuz you are not alone
Let your hopes go and they a´ll survive
Cuz this is the future and you are alive
If you're the bird whenever we pretend it's summer
Then I'm the worm, I know the part, it's such a bummer
But fair is fair, if my segments get separated
I'll scream and you'll be there
Close your eyes, close my eyes
Slide the cotton off of your shoulder
And feel the shine, feel the shine
I'm hooked so toss me over and cast a line, oh I'll try
Oh, throw a party and greet my undersea friends
It depends, as they arrive, if they arrive
You and I left our troubles far behind, troubles far behind
But I still have just one more question on my mind
For all my pals who live in the oceans and the seas
With friends like these well, who needs enemies
If I'm your boy, let's take a short cut we remember
And we'll enjoy, picking apples in late September
Like we've done for years
Then we'll take a long walk through the corn field
And I'll kiss you between the ears
If you're my girl, swirl me around your room with feeling
And as we twirl, the glow in the dark stars on your ceiling
Will shine for us, as love sweeps over the room
'Cause we tend to make each other blush, you make me blush
You and I left our troubles far behind, troubles far behind
But I still have just one more question on my mind
For all my pals who live in the oceans and the seas
With fronds like these well, who needs anemones?
You're the bird and I'm the worm and it's plain to see
That we were meant to be
We were meant to be
We were meant to be
If you're the bird
If you're the bird
Then I'm the worm
We were meant to be
I saw the autumn leaves
Peel up off the street
Take wing on the balmy breeze
And sweep you off your feet
And you blushed as they scooped you up
On sugar maple wings
To gaze down on the city below
Ablaze with wondrous things
Downy feathers kiss your face
And flutter everywhere
Reality is a lovely place
But I wouldn't wanna live there
I wouldn't wanna live there
Weighed down by heavy lids
And lunar lullabies
I knew you were wide awake
'Cause you smile with your eyes
Downy feathers kiss your face
And flutter everywhere
Reality is a lovely place
But I wouldn't wanna live there
From the green belt balcony
The wildfires look so pretty
Ponderosa canopy
I'd never leave if it were up to me
To the ruby redwood tree
And to the velvet climbing ivy
Painted all mahogany
I'd never leave if it were up to me
If it were up to me
With a starry brush
Paint the dusk venetian blue
'Cause in the evening hush
You'll never believe the view
And when the leaves return
And their whisperings fill the night
They'll freeze and burn
Where fire and ice collide
Where fire and ice collide
Can you feel a silk embrace
In the satin air?
If we dissolve without a trace
Will the real world even care?
Downy feathers kiss your face
And flutter everywhere
Reality is a lovely place
But I wouldn't wanna live there
I wouldn't wanna live there
I saw the autumn leaves
Peel up off the street
Take wing on the balmy breeze
I'm the snow
Look out below
And bundle up
'Cause here I come!
Skies of grey
This holiday
But spirits shine so bright
They don't need the sun
'Cause love is the fire in your fireplace
And carefree are the snowflakes that fall on your face
And although this winter may bring us a storm
The joy in your heart keeps you warm
So there we were, back home from somewhere inside my head
Oh, bravely I fought off the monsters beneath her bed
Pillars of postwar books supported by frame of mind
While she memorized the pages that I tried to not hide behind
She took my hand in hers and whispered her love for me
The lantern died that night but we didn't need to see
Implying that she's the bee's knees and I am the cat's meow
It's funny how she recalls what I can't remember now
But when her smile came back and I didn't feel half as horrible
She gave me a heart attack just because she looked so adorable
We both put our sunblock on, played on the beach and
Vowed that we'd live and we'd learn
Yeah, but she got a tan, and I got a sunburn, I got a sunburn
So there we were out there, unaware of where we'd been
We kicked off our flip-flops and swung from the rooftops again
It's awkward but I'll confess she's all I can think about
And it's funny how I recall what she can't remember now
But when her smile came back and I didn't feel half as horrible
She gave me a heart attack just because she looked so adorable
We both put our sunblock on, played on the beach and
vowed that we'd live and we'd learn
Yeah, but she got a tan, and I got a sunburn
Oh, afterglow, look out below
We left a trail of dust behind
As we parted ways, she held my gaze
And left an imprint on my mind
I tried not to cry as we said goodbye
And hung the clouds above my town
But I shed a tear when she disappeared
Cause now I'm a stranger on the ground
When her smile came back and I didn't feel half as horrible
She gave me a heart attack
We both put our sunblock on, played on the beach and
vowed that we'd live and we'd learn
But she got a tan, and I got a sunburn
She got a tan, and I got a sunburn
I'm alone above the atmosphere
And no one looking up can find me here
Cause I can close my eyes, and disappear
When I climb the stairs to watch the sun
Above station walls, the colors run
To fill the swimming pool when I am done
I am the captain of an oil tanker that travels throuh your veins
When the satellites hang all around
And I can finally hear the lovely sound
When all the engines in the backroom die down
All the airships move across the sky
And my equipment just keeps standing by
The planets glow and intensify
I am the pilot of a cargo airplane that travels throuh your veins
When you are lying half asleep in your room
Unaware if it is midnight or afternoon
Because the water doesn't flood the stairwell
It could be raining but then you can never tell.
If you're alone in this awful downpour
Then struggle free and paddle out the cellar door
In the evening light the boulevard
Conceals the night with disregard
For all the workers in a west coast ship yard
When I rearrange the silverware
And re-install the lights and captian's chair
I'll lift the ceiling off to breathe the ocean air
I am the engineer of forty freight trains that travels throuh your veins
When you are lying half asleep in your room
Unaware if it is midnight or afternoon
Because the water doesn't flood the stairwell
It could be raining but then you can never tell.
If you're awake in this awful downpour
Then struggle free and paddle out the cellar door
When you are swimming in Miami at night
Glamor and fashion
Models and magazines
A striking runway entrance
Beauty and passion
Stardust and high class scenes
Of popular teens
When I lived in Denver
I met a millionaire
With ribbons in her blond hair
I still remember
She was like a princess
Straight from a dreamy castle in the air
So lovely
She was everything to me
Both alone in the dark
We longed to see the sun
Rise over the Bering Strait
I was sick of the west
When I turned 21
So I moved to the Sunshine State
We played golf on the moon
And tennis on the sun
Like athletes in the afternoon
The solar flares burned my arms
And made her make-up run
On our super-lunar honeymoon
I was the youngest son of a congressman
And everything was my fault
She was a gymnast
Happily swinging on the uneven bars
Tucked in a somersault
So lovely
She was everything to me
So lovely
She everything to me
Both alone in the dark
We longed to see the sun
Rise over the Bering Strait
I was sick of the west
When I turned 21
So I moved to the Sunshine State
We played golf on the moon
And tennis on the sun
Like athletes in the afternoon
The solar flares burned my arms
And made her make-up run
There's the snow
Look out below
And bundle up
Cause here it comes
Run outside
So starry eyed
A snowball fight breaks out
And winter has finally begun
I twirl through the driveway with angelic grace
Till I slip on the sidewalk and fall on my face
This peppermint winter is so sugar sweet
I don't need to taste to believe
What's December without Christmas Eve
Hop in the sleigh
And we'll glide away
Into the night
And we'll sip on moonlight
Runny nose
My frosty toes
Are getting cold but I feel alive
So I smile wide
The snowflakes start falling and I start to float
Till my mean older brother stuffs snow down my coat
This peppermint winter is so sugar sweet
I don't need to taste to believe
What's December without Christmas Eve
All this holiday cheer
Heaven knows where it goes
But it returns every year
And though this winter does nothing but storm
The joy in my heart is ablaze and it's keeping me warm
It's keeping me warm
It's keeping me warm
I rip off the wrapping and tear through the box
Till I end up with 45 new pairs of socks
This peppermint winter is so sugar sweet
I don't need to taste to believe
In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light,my strength,my song.
This cornerstone,this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love,what depths of peace
When fears are stilled and strivings cease
My comforter,my all in all
Here in the power of Christ i stand.
There in the ground his body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain.
Then bursting forth in glorious day
Up from the grave he rose again!
And as he stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost it's grip on me
For i am his and he is mine
Bought with the precious blood of christ.
No guilt in life,no fear in death...
This is the power of Christ in me!
From life's first cry ro final breath
Jesus commands my destiny.
No power of hell,no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from his hand
Till he returns or calls me home,
here in the power of Christ i'll stand.
Till he returns or calls mme home
Here in the power of Christ.....
I saw a ghost on the stairs
And sheets on the tables and chairs
The silverware swam with the sharks in the sink
Even so, I don't know what to think
I've been longing for daisies to push through the floor
And I wish plant life would grow all around me
So I won't feel dead anymore
So I won't feel dead anymore
I saw a bear in the den
Reading my textbooks again
The bats flowed like traffic
As they poured from the attic
Heaven knows I could really use a friend
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
The trees keep the tempo and they swing in time
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
If I were to pluck on your heart strings
Would you strum on mine?
I've been longing for daisies to push through the floor
I've never really felt like this before
And I wish plant life would grow all around me
So I won't feel dead anymore
So I won't feel dead anymore
Your spirit is sweet, so pull off your sheet
And give me a ghost of a smile
Show me your teeth 'cause you're a teddy beneath
So just grin and bear it a while
Just grin and bear it a while
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
The trees keep the tempo and they swing in time
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
If I were to pluck on your heart strings
Would you strum on mine?
The book babbles on about nothing at all
New leaf turns over, unwilling to fall
Tonight I'm busting out of this old haunted house
'Cause I'm sick of waiting for
All those spider webs to grow all around me
'Cause I don't feel dead anymore
And I'm not afraid anymore
I'd rather waltz than just walk through the forest
The trees keep the tempo and they swing in time
Quartet of crickets chime in for the chorus
If I were to pluck on your heart strings
Would you strum on mine?
If I were to pluck on your heart strings
I'm moving to Tokyo
'Cause I'm tired of San Francisco
My contracts are finally void
And I am getting out
On houses and building tops
I swallow the beams and sundrops
If my echos could reach your ears
Then I could save my calls
What happens when I'm above
The east river when you are in love
We're staring at all these lights
And I am going blind
Fill all of the navy yards
With hard working security guards
Cuz the numbers are wearing off
My plastic access cards
How can I begin to say
I feel better off when we stay
In Paris on winter nights
Beneath the snowy veil
Content like a panda bear
Still breathing the fresh mountain air
I'll put on a diving tank
I can finally see
That you're right there beside me
I am not my own
For I have been made new
Please don't let me go
I desperately need you
I am not my own
For I have been made new
Please don't let me go
The princess in her flower bed
Pulled the jungle underground
Where cherry bombs stained the blackbirds red
And explosions never make a sound
Oh comet, come down
Kamikaze over me
And I come alive
My midnight melody
Oh comet, come down
My captain on a snowy horse
Is coming back to take me home
He's coming back to take me home
I'm finally fighting back a terrible force
'Cause I'm not afraid to die alone
Oh comet, come down
Kamikaze over me
And I come alive
My midnight melody
Oh comet, come down
Kamikaze over me
And I come alive
My midnight melody
Oh comet, come down
Oh comet, come
Oh comet, come down
Break down the open road
Maybe I'll ride
And fight back the overtow
To save my life
Bring in the amber glow
Maybe I'll fly
And go where you wanna go
With your eagle eye
Break down the open road
Maybe I'll ride
And fight back the overthrow
To save my life
Bring in the amber glow
Maybe I'll fly
And go where you wanna go
With your eagle eye
Eagle eye, eagle eye
Eagle eye, eagle eye
Eagle eye, eagle eye
Eagle eye, eagle eye
Eagle eye, eagle eye
Make you me wanna
Would we make the never sex
Fly away the get fly
Jet lag the crank the tortured
The fighting the end of time
The flay the light the paradise
The city the drag the stealing time
Wild the sea the dust
Dreams don't cross the sky
Kansas the wind blown the tiger
Flesh hunter the fight why we make
Take me that floor sea
Oh oh, I can't even take it in.
Oh oh, I can't even take it in.
Oh oh, I left my heart in Metropolis.
So far apart, I check that the coast was clear,
I feel like a post card, I wish you were here.
Subway through the dark, tearing through the park.
Taxi down the street, the avenue's at my feet
Don't matter much to me what it is that I do, as long as I'm coming home
With you.
Oh oh oh, as far as I can see,
You're the only one, the only one who can get to me.
Like a high jacked plane, or a runaway train,
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping me!
I left my heart in Metropolis!
A thousand miles feels like a million years,
Like hundreds of postcards that say I wish you were here!
Airplane through the sky, grey all racing by,
Air bike on the beach, sailboat on the sea,
Don't matter much to me what it is that I do, as long as I'm coming home
With you.
Oh oh oh, as far as I can see,
You're the only one, the only one who can get to me.
Like a high jacked plane, or a runaway train,
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping me!
I left my heart in Metropolis!
I left my heart in Metropolis!
Like a high jacked plane, or a runaway train,
Or a speeding bullet, there's no stopping me!
I left my heart in Metropolis!
I left my heart in Metropolis!
I left my heart in Metropolis!
I left my heart in Metropolis!
Oh oh, I can't even take it in.
Oh oh, I can't even take it in.
Oh oh, I can't even take it in.
Ladies and gentleman,
Today is a day for morning and remembering
They had a hunger to explore the universe
and discover its truths and
they had that special grace and special spirit that says give me a challenge
and I'll read it with joy
the crew of the space shuttle challenger,
honored us in the matter,
of which they lived their lives
We will never forget them,
as they prepared for their journey up,
and waved goodbye.
As they slipped from the silver bounds of Earth
How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory
Behold the Man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice,
Call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished
I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
We wrote a prelude
To our own fairy tale
And bought a parachute
At a church rummage sale
And with a mean sewing machine
And miles of thread
We sewed the day above L.A.
In navy and red
We wound a race track
Through your mom's kitchen chairs
And fought the shadows back
Down your dark basement stairs
I lit a match, then let it catch
To light up the room
And then you yelled as we beheld
An old maroon hot air balloon
I'll be out of my mind
And you'll be out of ideas
Pretty soon
So let's spend
The afternoon in a cold hot air balloon
Leave your jacket behind
Lean out and touch the treetops over town
I can't wait
To kiss the ground
Wherever we touch back down
La la la laa laaaa
La la la la
La la laa laaaa
We drank the Great Lakes
Like cold lemonade
And both got stomach aches
Sprawled out in the shade
So bored to death you held your breath
And I tried not to yawn
You made my frown turn upside down
And now my worries are gone
I'll be out of my mind
And you'll be out of ideas
Pretty soon
So let's spend
The afternoon in a cold hot air balloon
Leave your jacket behind
Lean out and touch the treetops over town
I can't wait
To kiss the ground
Wherever we touch back down
I'll be out of my mind
And you'll be out of ideas
Pretty soon
So let's spend
The afternoon in a cold hot air balloon
Leave your jacket behind
Lean out and touch the treetops over town
I can't wait
To kiss the ground
I survived a dreadful accident
In the car crash of the century
My shattered hopes collapsed on cold cement
But in the back of the ambulance
I'd never felt so content
A high speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me
And now my vision can render the scene
A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris
Happiness returned to me through a grave emergency
I tossed and turned in sterile apathy
Until the violets arrived for me
The bouquet burst and blossoms filled the room
And the place got smaller as they grew taller
And taught me to bloom
A high speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me
And now my vision can render the scene
A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris
Happiness returned to me through a grave emergency
The curtains decayed, the daylight poured in
I was never afraid of the darkness again
My burns were third degree, but I'd been set free
'Cause grace had finally found its way to me
A high speed collision gave a new sense of sight to me
And now my vision can render the scene
A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris
Happiness returned to me, happiness returned to me
Happiness returned to me through a grave emergency
Through a grave emergency
I went to a garden party to reminisce with my old friends
A chance to share old memories and play our songs again
When I got to the garden party, they all knew my name
But no one recognized me, I didn’t look the same
But it’s all right now, I learned my lesson well
You see, you can’t please everyone so you gotta please yourself
People came from miles around and everyone was there
Yoko brought her walrus, there was magic in the air
And over in the corner, much to my surprise
Mr. Hughes hid in Dylan’s shoes, wearing his disguise
But it’s all right now, I learned my lesson well
You see, you can’t please everyone so you gotta please yourself
I played them all the old songs, I thought that’s why they came
But no one heard the music, we didn’t look the same
I said hello to Mary Lou, she belongs to me
And when I sang a song about a Honky Tonk, it was time to leave
But it’s all right now, I learned my lesson well
You see, you can’t please everyone so you gotta please yourself
Someone opened up a closet door and out stepped Johnny B. Good
Playing guitar like ringing a bell and looking like he should
If you gotta play at garden parties, I wish you a lot of luck
But if memories were all I sang, I’d rather drive a truck
But it’s all right now, I learned my lesson well
You see, you can’t please everyone so you gotta please yourself
You see, you can’t please everyone so you gotta please yourself
Hello Seattle, I am a mountaineer
In the hills and highlands
I fall asleep in hospital parking lots
And awake in your mouth
Hello Seattle, I am a mantaray
Deep beneath the blue waves
I'll crawl the sandy bottom of Puget Sound
And construct a summer home
Hello Seattle, I am the crescent moon
Shining down on your face
I will disguise myself as a sleeping pill
And descend inside of you
Hello Seattle, I am a cold seahorse
Feeling warm in your sand
I sing about the tide and the ocean surf
Rolling in the evening breeze
Hello Seattle, I am an albatross
On the docks and your boats
I sail above your inlets and interstates
Through the rain and open wind
Hello Seattle, I am an old lighthouse
Throwing beams of bright lights
Red in the morning, blue in the evening sun
Taking heed from everyone
Hello Seattle, I am a mountaineer
In the hills and highlands
I fall asleep in hospital parking lots
Take me above your light
Carry me through the night
Hold me secure in flight
Sing me to sleep tonight
Take me above your light
Carry me through the night
Hold me secure in flight
Sing me to sleep tonight
There were days when each hour was a war I fought to survive
There were nights full of nightmares and I dreaded closing my eyes
There were skies that burst open with a downpour to drown me alive
But the world took a spark like a match in the dark and the fire brought me
to life
So I'm fanning the flames to climb so high 'cause there's no other way we
can stay alive
'Cause we're burning bright as we all unite
And when it's all said and done we'll shine like the sun so don't let the
fire die
And we'll watch the sky as it fills with light
And though the embers are new, whatever you do just don't let the fire die
And you'll find, there'll be mornings when the ashes and embers are cold
But you'll fight with a passion and you'll never stop 'cause you know
Yeah you know it gets better and your story is yet to be told
Every push, every shove, every war, every love
Yeah the coals are beginning to glow
So I'm fanning the flames to climb so high 'cause there's no other way we
can stay alive
'Cause we're burning bright as we all unite
And when it's all said and done we'll shine like the sun so don't let the
fire die
And we'll watch the sky as it fills with light
And though the embers are new, whatever you do just don't let the fire die
Don't let the fire die
It gets better
Just don't let the fire die, no...
'Cause we're burning bright as we all unite
And when it's all said and done we'll shine like the sun so don't let the
fire die
And we'll watch the sky as it fills with light
And though the embers are new, whatever you do just don't let the fire die
And though the embers are new, whatever you do just don't let the fire die
Good evening shuttle bus
Tell me where you're gonna take us
Someplace that I have never been
It's chic transportation to
New destination where
I leave my reflection on the glass
I'd ask but we all know
How far these interstates go
Or how deep the city routes go down
In chilly sub depth railways
The weathered concrete stairways
Provide me with the means of getting home
If I ever leave
(On crystal sand we sleep hand in hand while soothing words)
So many sights to see
So wake up like an early birdie
And we'll get a head start on the day
Oh, stained glass sky ways
And crowded six lane highways
If I look back when I begin to leave
Will they remember me?
Circuit flights bend the lights when I am spent
And tour guides make happy brides through heaven soon
Good evening shuttle bus
Tell me where you're gonna take us
(On crystal sand we sleep hand in hand
While soothing words)
On crystal sand we sleep hand in hand
While soothing words hover like humming birds
Good, good evening shuttle bus
You would not believe your eyes
If ten million fireflies
Lit up the world as I fell asleep
'Cause they'd fill the open air
And leave teardrops everywhere
You'd think me rude
But I would just stand and stare
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
'Cause I'd get a thousand hugs
From ten thousand lightning bugs
As they tried to teach me how to dance
A foxtrot above my head
A sock hop beneath my bed
A disco ball is just hanging by a thread
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep
Leave my door open just a crack
(Please take me away from here)
'Cause I feel like such an insomniac
(Please take me away from here)
Why do I tire of counting sheep
(Please take me away from here)
When I'm far too tired to fall asleep
To ten million fireflies
I'm weird 'cause I hate goodbyes
I got misty eyes as they said farewell
But I'll know where several are
If my dreams get real bizarre
'Cause I saved a few and I keep them in a jar
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet Earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
'Cause everything is never as it seems
When I fall asleep
I'd like to make myself believe
That planet earth turns slowly
It's hard to say that I'd rather stay
Awake when I'm asleep
Because my dreams are bursting at the seams
There I was again tonight forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired, lonely place, walls of insincerity
Shifting eyes and vacancy vanished when I saw your face
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you
Your eyes whispered, "Have we met?"
Across the room your silhouette starts to make its way to me
The playful conversation starts
Counter all your quick remarks like passing notes in secrecy
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you
Oh Taylor, I was so enchanted to meet you too
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you too
The lingering question kept me up, 2 a.m., who do you love?
I wondered till I'm wide awake
Now I'm pacing back and forth, wishing you were at my door
I'd open up and you would say
Hey, it was enchanting to meet you
Oh Taylor, I was so enchanted to meet you too
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you too
This is me praying that this was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name until I see you again
These are the words I held back as I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you too
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
Taylor, I'll spend my whole life wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you too
I was never in love with someone else
I never had somebody waiting on me
'Cause you were all of my dreams come true and I just wish you knew
((Adam:) Dementia, you're driving me crazy
(Mark:) This is driving me crazy
(Adam:) Dementia, oh, Dementia)
Every light in the night flickered in and out
Every bone in my back shivered up and down
Keep the pace just in case all the magic dies
Cause this is driving me crazy
Every voice in my head shouted yes and no
Every freight train of thought fought to stop and go
Keep the pace just in case all the magic dies
Cause this is driving me crazy
Big suprise, I'm a ghost keeping out of sight
Love your eyes, you're a star in the summer night
This is love, this is war, it's insanity
Dementia, you're driving me crazy!
(Dementia)
(Dementia, you're driving me crazy)
((Mark:) This is driving me crazy)
Every tear in my eyes dripped and wouldn't drop
Every disc in my spine shook and couldn't stop
Keep the pace just in case all the magic dies
Cause this is driving me crazy
Every hand let me go that I try to hold,
Every warm-hearted love left me freezing cold
Keep the pace just in case all the magic dies
Cause this is driving me crazy
Big suprise, I'm a ghost keeping out of sight
Love your eyes, you're a star in the summer night
This is love, this is war, it's insanity
Dementia, you're driving me crazy!
(Dementia, you're driving me crazy)
(Dementia, you're driving me crazy)
(Mark:) This is driving me crazy
(You're driving me crazy)
Cause this is driving me crazy
(Dementia)
Big suprise, I'm a ghost keeping out of sight
Love your eyes, you're a star in the summer night
This is love, this is war, it's insanity
Dementia, oh dementia
Through the skies, you're en route at the speed of light
So realise this chaos in the air tonight
This is love, this is war, this is pure insanity
Dementia, you're driving me crazy!
(Mark:) This is driving me crazy
Oh dementia, you're driving me crazy
Cause this is driving me crazy
Dementia, you're driving me crazy!
((M:)This is driving me crazy)
(This is driving me crazy)
((M:)This is driving me crazy)
We, were alone, on the road, driving faster
So, far from home, we were chasing disaster
Pour, on the gas, til the car, caught on fire
We, had to laugh, as the smoke, billowed higher
I wanna feel alive forever after
And you say, you say you wanna feel alive forever after
And I, and I, and I say
Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ine through the dreams and disasters
Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ine to the edge and the after
We won't turn around
We will not slow down
Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ine through the dreams and disasters
Think, of the sun, and the sound, of it rising
Still, on the run, with our eyes on the horizon
I wanna feel alive forever after
And you say, you say you wanna feel alive forever after
And I, and I, and I say
Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ine to the dreams and disasters
Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ine to the edge and the after
We won't turn around
We will not slow down
Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ine to the dreams and disasters
I just wanna feel alive
I just wanna feel alive
I just wanna feel alive
I just wanna feel alive
I just wanna feel alive
Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ine through the dreams and disasters
Fo-o-ollow the li-i-ine to the edge and the after
We won't turn around
We will not slow down
Affection, the gifted architect
Is making a draft and beautiful design
The options and possibilities
Are endless when we connect and re-align
Collections of books and documents
Arise and parade around my cluttered desk
Reworking the math and measurements
Until I'm convinced these plans are picturesque
Like mountains in the Midwest
Reaction creates the columns dark
And wide like the roads around Fort Lauderdale
The structures begin to take their shape
Before I've designed the public monorail
The turnpike and high-speed motorway
Connect and enclose the quaint suburban streets
The airport, the broad suspension bridge
The lake and the beach where several rivers meet
Compounded from the spreadsheet
A city sparkles in the night
How can it glow so bright?
The neighborhoods surround the soft florescent light
Designer skyline in my head
Abstract and still well-read
That blonde, she's a bomb, she's an atom bomb
Rigged up and ready to drop
The bad news, I'm a fuse and I've met my match, so stand back it's about to
Go off
That vixen, she's a master of disguise, I see danger when I look in her
Eyes
She's so foxy, she could lead to my advice, so I'm running 'cause I've run
Out of time
She's a bomshell blonde, light her up to detonate
I'm Flames Pond, live to die another day
Bombshell blonde, high explosive dynamite
She's all I want, so I am on a mission tonight
(I am on a mission tonight)
Her love is a drug laced with ecstasy, and her charm is spiked with a spell
A hot mess in a dress gets the best of me, she's ice cold but she's making
Me melt
That vixen, she's a master of disguise, I see danger when I look in her
Eyes
She's so foxy, she could lead to my advice, so I'm running 'cause I've run
Out of time
She's a bomshell blonde, light her up to detonate
I'm Flames Pond, live to die another day
Bombshell blonde, high explosive dynamite
She's all I want, so I am on a mission tonight
(DUBSTEP)
That vixen, she's a master of disguise, I see danger when I look in her
Eyes
She's so foxy, she could lead to my advice, so I'm running 'cause I've run
Out of time
She's a bomshell blonde, light her up to detonate
I'm Flames Pond, live to die another day
Bombshell blonde, high explosive dynamite
She's all I want, so I am on a mission tonight
That vixen, she's a master of disguise, I see danger when I look in her
Eyes
She's so foxy, she could lead to my advice, so I'm running 'cause I've run
Out of time
She's a bomshell blonde, light her up to detonate
I'm Flames Pond, live to die another day
Bombshell blonde, high explosive dynamite
She's all I want, so I am on a mission tonight
I am stuck in L.A.
Through the week and can't get away
And you're alone on the pier
In West Palm Beach on your holiday
Stormy night, reawake
The stomach ache that I've acquired
From feeling down, things look grim
And I'm so sick of being tired
Apartment lights go dark
And it's depressing but what can I do?
The midnight streets feel dead
When I am so used to driving with you
Brighter lights fill the night and
Bluer skys reflect in your eyes
As I inspect and analyze
All of these dreams I don't recognize
If you're still up when the ships
In the port prepare to set sail
Comb the beach and put those blue flowers up in your ponytail
Inside my head you're voice is still resounding but what can I do?
Empty rooms feel cold when I am so used to being with you
Count the stars, watch the waves absorb the summer sun
And think of me
When you explore hidden coves and tiny island chains throughout the sea
Can you still, hear my voice, when I'm outside from over the phone
For what it's worth, darling dear, I wish you were here Cause I feel alone
When you were home we'd sing but since you've left I don't hear anything
Though I feel so sad, I can't believe things are really that bad
Old captains and brand new cruise ships
Sailing over the brimy sea
When I crash my beloved desk job
And swim through the debris
I'll cut loose leave this mad house all for the atlantic blue
If I was a raindrop
Would you be my thunder storm?
It's cold so surround me
With rain clouds to keep me warm
I feel like I'm falling
So darling, don't let me go
The thought is appalling
But should I slip away
Into the stormy sea will you remember me?
Asleep in our warm cocoons
We dream of lovely things
We're both gonna wake up soon
So we hope that tomorrow brings
Us our butterfly wings
If I was a grain of sand
Would you be Miami Beach?
So dusty with starlight
Close your eyes and cuddle close to me
I'll try not to wake you
Or make a sound while you're dozing off
But in the night should the high tide
Sweep me away from you
Tell me again, my dear, will you be waiting here?
Whenever we leave the ground
And take to the sky
I'll smile as I'm gazing down
'Cause I've always wondered why
Wake me if you're out there!
Through the glass in my bedroom window,
In the bushes far below,
I thought I saw an unfamiliar shadow,
Among the ones I so clearly know.
I've been sleeping with the nightlight unplugged,
With a note on the rocking chair,
That says I'm dreaming of the life I once loved,
So wake me if you're out there.
Living close to the ground,
It's seventh heaven because there are angels all around,
Among my frivolous thoughts,
I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts.
So wake me if you're out there!
Wake me if you're out there!
In the dust on my cellar staircase,
A pair of footprints followed me,
I saw a flicker in the fake fireplace,
Blinked again, but there was nothing to see.
I've been leaving all the windows unlocked,
With a basket by the oak tree,
'Cause I'll be picking up the acorns that fall off,
If you'll be climbing up to meet me.
Living close to the ground!
It's seventh heaven because there are angels all around,
Among my frivolous thoughts,
I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts.
So wake me if you're out there!
I keep my knees black and blue 'cause they often hit the hardwood floor,
(Wake me if you're out there),
And I believe, so I'm not praying to the ceiling anymore,
And I've been sleeping with the nightlight unplugged,
With a note on the rocking chair that says I'm dreaming of the life I once loved,
So wake me if you're out there.
Living close to the ground!
It's seventh heaven 'cause there are angels all around,
Among my frivolous thoughts,
I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts!
The indications reveal,
(Wake me if you're out there),
That few of us realise life is quite so real,
So if you're dying to see,
I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity!
So if you're dying to see,

Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the alligator sky?
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go
That's not a plane, that's me
I'm sittin' where I'm supposed to
Floatin' on the cloud, can't nobody come close to
The concrete and the sky switch places
So now my ceilin' is painted with cosmic spaces
Firecracker to the moon, keep your eyes shut
Blastin' off like a rocket from the ground up
I used to catch a cab on the Monday
Now the taxi's sellin' lights on the runway, fly
Condo on The Milky Way
A house on the cloud and God's my landlord
And for my rent all I pay is my drive
I got that, so if you need me
You can find me in the alligator sky
Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the alligator sky?
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go
Roller coaster through the atmosphere
I'm drownin' in this starry serenade
Where ecstasy becomes cavalier
My imagination's takin' me away
Reverie whispered in my ear
I'm scared to death that I'll never be afraid
Roller coaster through the atmosphere
My imagination's takin' me away
Now I'ma dance like I never dance
Sing like I never sing, dream like I've never dreamed
Or try to, 'cause we've been lied to
That the sun is somethin' that we can't fly to
Well, I sit on my star and see street lights
Look up, ha, you'll miss me if you blink twice
Imagination is hot and if you got it you can meet me
When you see me in the alligator sky
Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the alligator sky?
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go
Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the alligator sky?
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go
In the alligator sky
In the alligator sky
In the alligator sky
The bird is here,
And we are off,
To wherever those wings take us.
The atmosphere,
Is crawling with airlines,
That wind through the clouds,
And look down on the crowds.
Relax your back,
And let the noise,
Sing you to sleep in my, arms.
If you awake,
Before we arrive,
I will carry you down,
And I won't make a sound.
The scent is strong,
As we move on,
And breathe in the pristine,
Crime, scene.
The false veneer,
Is old like a
Substitute, volunteer,
From, oh, some other year.
I'm just a show,
As far as I can tell,
So I paint my eyes a light green.
The silver beams,
Are twirling and swirling ,
Throughout your dreams,
Like air traffic streams.
Shipwreck in a sea of faces
There's a dreamy world up there
Dear friends in higher places
Carry me away from here
Travel light, let the sun eclipse you
'Cause your flight is about to leave
And there's more to this brave adventure
Than you'd ever believe
Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue
Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery
'Cause after all those wings will take you up so high
So bid the forest floor goodbye
As you race the wind and take to the sky
You take to the sky
On the heels of war and wonder
There's a stormy world up there
You can't whisper above the thunder
But you can fly anywhere
Purple burst of paper birds this
Picture paints a thousand words
So take a breath of myth and mystery
And don't look back
Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue
Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery
'Cause after all those wings will take you up so high
So bid the forest floor goodbye
As you race the wind and take to the sky
(Take to the sky)
There's a realm above the trees
Where the lost are finally found
Touch your feathers to the breeze
And leave the ground
Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue
Chase your dreams, and remember me, sweet bravery
'Cause after all those wings will take you up so high
So bid the forest floor goodbye
As you race the wind and take to the sky
You take to the sky
(You take to the sky)
I am the red in the rose, the flowers
On the blankets on your bedroom floor.
And I am the gray in the ghost that hides
With your clothes behind your closet door.
I am the green in the grass that bends back
From underneath your feet.
And I am the blue in your back alley view
Where the horizon and the rooftops meet.
If you cut me I suppose I would bleed the colors
Of the evening stars.
You can go anywhere you wish cause I'll be there,
wherever you are.
(Wherever you are) 2x
(I will always be your keys
When we are lost in the technicolor phase)
I am the black in the book
The letters on the pages that you memorize.
And I am the orange in the overcast
Of color that you visualize.
I am the white in the walls that soak up
All the sound when you cannot sleep.
And I am the peach in the starfish on the beach
That wish the harbor wasn't quite so deep.
If you cut me I suppose I would bleed the colors
Of the evening stars. (my darling)
You can go anywhere you wish cause I'll be there,
wherever you are. (my darling)
I opened my eyes last night and saw you in the low light
Walking down by the bay on the shore
Staring up at the stars that aren't there anymore
I was feeling the night grow old and you were looking so cold
So like an introvert, I drew my over shirt
Around my arms and began to shiver violently
Before you happened to look and see the tunnels all around me
Running into the dark underground
All the subways around create a great sound
To my motion fatigue, farewell with your ear to a seashell
You can hear the waves in underwater caves
As if you actually were inside a saltwater room
Time together isn't ever quite enough
When you and I are alone, I've never felt so at home
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
Only time, only time
Can you believe that the crew has gone?
And they wouldn't let me sign on
All my islands have sunk in the deep
And I can hardly relax or even oversleep
When I feel warm with your hand in mine
When we walk along the shoreline
I guess we'll never know why sparrows love the snow
We'll turn out all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow
So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
Yeah, all the time, all the time
Time together isn't ever quite enough
When you and I are alone, I've never felt so at home
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
Only time, only time
When we're apart what ever are you thinking of?
If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone?
So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
All the time, all the time
Time together isn't ever quite enough
When we're apart what ever are you thinking of?
What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love?
All the time, oh, all the time
When I am fast asleep
I dream and see you floating high above me
And I awake at dawn
Before the rays of morning paint the front lawn
From on the bedroom floor
I watch you sailing far above the seashore
In deep Atlantic skies
You float as I look aft to watch the moon rise
Above the avenue
I search among the clouds, trying to see you
But you are just a blur
In the sky when you parachute over the harbor
I can see
You above with the ocean around me
If I could only stay
Overhead in the airway
You sail through
Endless sky with the evening around you
When I'm out on the bay
You're aloft in the airway
When I'm alone at night
I dream you paint the stars against the twilight
Suspended in the air
I wish your silhouette would always stay there
When I am on the beach
I watch you held aloft way out of my reach
But I cannot take flight
Or float upon the air the way that you might
When I am in the sea
You gaze down from the sky, trying to see me
But I am just a blur
Through the waves as I scuba dive below the harbor
The airway
You and I in the airway
Aloft in the airway
In love on the airway
I can see
You above with the ocean around me
If I could only stay
Overhead in the airway
You sail through
Endless sky with the evening around you
When I'm out on the bay
