Please take a long hard look through your text book
'Cause I'm history When I strap my helmet on I'll be long gone 'Cause I've been dying to leave Yeah, I'll ride the range and hide All my loose change in my bedroom 'Cause riding a dirtbike down A turnpike always takes its toll on me I've had just about enough of quote "Diamonds in the rough" Because my backbone is paper thin Get me out of this cavern or I'll cave in If the bombs go off, The sun will still be shining Because we've heard it said that Every mushroom cloud has a silver lining Though I'm always undermining too deep to know Swallow a drop of gravel and blacktop 'Cause the road tastes like wintergreen The wind and the rain smell of oil and octane Mixed with stale gasoline I'll soak up the sound trying to sleep on the wet ground I'll get ten minutes give-or-take 'Cause I just don't foresee myself getting drowsy When cold integrity keeps me wide awake Get me out of this cavern of I'll cave in Get me out of this cavern of I'll cave in I'll keep my helmet on just in case my head caves in 'Cause if my thoughts collapse or my framework snaps It'll make a mess like you wouldn't believe Tie my handlebars to the stars so I stay on track And if my intentions stray I'll wrench them away Then I'll take my leave and I won't even look back I won't even look back |

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 all the oceans and the seas With friends like these well, who needs enemies? Da dat dah da da da da da da dat dah If I`m your boy let`s take a short cut we remember And we`ll enjoy pickin` 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 all the oceans and the seas With fronds like these well, who needs anenomes? 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 Da dat dah da da da da da da dat dah If you`re the bird If you`re the bird Then I`m the worm We were meant to be |

Stands 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, unseen, outta 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, unseen, outta 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 Hidden under umbrella beach |

I opened my eyes last night and saw you in the low light
어제저녁 눈을 떳을때 나는 어두운 빛아래있는 너를 봤다 Walking down by the bay, on the shore, 해안을 걸으며, staring up at the planes that aren’t there anymore 더이상 있지않는 비행기를 보면서 I was feeling the night grow old and you were looking so cold 나는 저녁이 깊어지고 너가 차가워지는것을 느꼇다 Like an introvert, I drew my over shirt 내향적인사람처럼, 나는 윗옷을 입었다 Around my arms and began to shiver violently before 나의 팔주변은 심하게 떨렷고 You happened to look and see the tunnels all around me 너가 나의 이런모습을 보고 또 내주변에있는 터널을 보았겟지. Running into the dark underground 어둠속 지하로 달려가면서 All the subways around create a great sound 모든 전철들은 엄청난 소리를 내었다 To my motion fatigue: farewell 나의 몸에 누젹되어있던 피곤에게 말하였다: 안녕 With your ear to a seashell 너의 귀를 바다조개에 가져다대면 You can hear the waves in underwater caves 너는 바다속 동굴 소리를 들을수있을것이다. As if you actually were inside a saltwater room 너가 진짜로 바닷물방안에 있었기때문에 Time together is just never quite enough 같이 보냇던 시간은 절때 조용하지못햇지. When you and I are alone, I’ve never felt so at home 너와 내가 혼자였을때, 나는 집에있다는 느낌을 받지못했어. What will it take to make or break this hint of love 무엇이 이 사랑의 암시를 만들거나 없애버릴수있을까 We need time, only time 우리는 오직 시간만이 필요해 When we’re apart whatever are you thinking of? 너가 생각하는것처럼 우리가 해어진다면? If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone? 만약 이것이 내가말하는 집이라면, 왜 이렇게 외로운걸까? So tell me darling, do you wish we’d fall in love? 나의 사랑, 나한테 말해줘, 당신은 우리가 사랑에빠지는것을 원해? All the time, All the time... 언제나, 언제나.... Can you believe that the crew has gone and 배의 한일원이 가버리고 wouldn’t let me sign on? 나를 꼼짝못하게한다는 것을 믿을수있겟어? All my islands have sunk in the deep, 나의 모든 섬은 바다속으로 침몰해버렷어, so I can hardly relax or even oversleep 그래서 나는 전혀 편히쉴소없고 잘수없어. I feel as if I were home some nights when we count all the ship lights 나는 배의빛 갯수를 샐때면 내가 마치 집에온것같은 기분이 들어 I guess I’ll never know why sparrows love the snow We’ll turn off all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow 우리는 모든불을 끌것이고, 이 무도실을 빛나게 만들거야. |

I brush my teeth and look in the mirror
And laugh out loud as I'm beaming from ear to ear I'd rather pick flowers instead of fights And rather than flaunt my style I'd flash you a smile of clean pearly whites I've been to the dentist a thousand times so I know the drill I smooth my hair, sit back in the chair But somehow I still get the chills "Have a seat" he says pleasantly As he shakes my hand, and practically laughs at me "Open up nice and wide" He says peering in with a smirk he says "Don't have a fit this wil just pinch a bit" As he tries not to grin When hygienist leave on long vacations That's when denstists scream and lose their patients Talking only brings the tooth aches on Because I say the stupidest things So if my resolve goes South I'll swallow my pride with an aspirin, and shut my mouth Golf and alcohol don't mix And that's why I don't drink and drive Because good grief I'd knock out my teeth And have to kiss my smile goodbye I've been to the dentist a thousand times so i know the drill I smooth my hair, sit back in the chair But somehow I still get the chills -Dental Care of "Owl City" Shiree |

Breathe and I'll carry you away into the velvet sky And we'll stir the stars around and watch them fall away Into the Hudson Bay and plummet out of sight and sound The open summer breeze will sweep you through the hills Where I live in the Alpine heights Below the northern lights I spend my coldest nights alone awake And thinking of the weekend we were in love (The weekend we were in love) Home among these mountain tops can be so awfully dull A thousand miles from the tide Put photos on the walls of New York shopping malls Distract me so I stay inside I wish the rocket stayed over the promenade 'cuz I would make a hook And I fish them from the sky My darling she and I were hanging on so take us high To sing the world goodbye I am floating away lost in a silent ballet I'm dreaming you're out in the blue and I am right beside you Awake to take in the view Late nights and early parades Still photos and noisy arcades My darling we're both on the wing Look down and keep on singing and we can go anywhere Are you there (Are you there) (Are you there) (Are you there) Are you there (Are you there) (Are you there) (Are you there) Or are you just a decoy dream in my head Am I home or am I simply tumbling out alone I am floating away (Floating away) Lost in a silent ballet (Silent ballet) I'm dreaming you're out in the blue and I am right beside you Awake to take in the view Late nights and early parades (Early parades) Still photos and noisy arcades (Noisy arcades) My darling we're both on the wing look down and keep on singing And we can go anywhere Are you there (Are you there) (Are you there) (Are you there) Are you there (Are you there) (Are you there) (Are you there) |

Welcome back, Winter once again,
And put on your warm fuzzy sweater, Cuz 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, Cuz 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, Cuz 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 crystalize I'll travel the sub-zero tundra, I'll brave 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 finished ice, Fingers failed us before they froze, Frostbite bit down on all our toes Snow drifts build up and enfold us, As we wait out this winter storm, So we snuggle close in the darkness, And keep each other so warm |

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 Till 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 |

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, Help is on the way, 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 (Back down again, back down again, 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 |

This is a world of dreams and revery
Where I felt the stars explode around me A grass blade flashed with a gleam as it slashed open a moonbeam And I stared back breathlessly As mountains of fruit tumbled out I barely had the chance to shout A strawberry avalanche crash over me Staying awake that night was rather hard Deep in a sleeping bag in your back yard When we woke up buried alive Beneath the fruity landslide We both laughed hysterically It could've been just another dream But, I swear I heard you scream A strawberry avalanche crash over me Oh, there's a citrus constellation in the galaxy Scratched on the back of both my eyelids That I've been dying to see If you were a beautiful sound in the echoes all around Then I'd be your harmony And we'd sing along with the crowds Beneath the candy coated clouds A strawberry avalanche please crash over me This is a world of dreams and revery Where I felt the stars explode around me |

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 lightening bugs As they tried to teach me how to dance. A foxtrot above my head, A sock-hop beneath my bed, The 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.

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 flipflops 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 Yeah, but she got a tan, and I got a sunburn |

You're the sky that I fell through
And I remember the view whenever I'm holding you The sun hung from a string Looking down on the world as it warmed over everything Chills run down my spine as our fingers intwine And your sighs harmonize with mine Unmistakably I can still feel your heart Beat fast when you dance with me We got older and I should have known (Do you feel alive?) That I'd feel colder when I walk alone (Oh, but you'll survive) So I may as well ditch my dismay (Bombs away... Bombs away...) Circle me and the needle moves gracefully Back and forth, if my heart was a compass you'd be North Risk it all cause I'll catch you if you fall Wherever you go, if my heart was a house you'd be home It makes me smile because you said it best I would clearly feel blessed if the sun rose up from the west Flower balm perfume, all my clothes smell like you Cause your favorite shade is navy blue I walk slowly when I'm on my own (Do you feel alive?) Yeah, but frankly I still feel alone (Oh, but you'll survive) So I may as well ditch my dismay (Bombs away... Bombs away...) Circle me and the needle moves gracefully Back and forth, if my heart was a compass you'd be North Risk it all cause I'll catch you if you fall Wherever you go, if my heart was a house you'd be home If my heart was a house, you'd be home |

Breathe and I'll carry you away into the velvet sky And we'll stir the stars around and watch them fall away Into the Hudson Bay and plummet out of sight and sound The open summer breeze will sweep you through the hills Where I live in the Alpine heights Below the northern lights I spend my coldest nights alone awake And thinking of the weekend we were in love (The weekend we were in love) Home among these mountain tops can be so awfully dull A thousand miles from the tide Put photos on the walls of New York shopping malls Distract me so I stay inside I wish the rocket stayed over the promenade 'cuz I would make a hook And I fish them from the sky My darling she and I were hanging on so take us high To sing the world goodbye I am floating away lost in a silent ballet I'm dreaming you're out in the blue and I am right beside you Awake to take in the view Late nights and early parades Still photos and noisy arcades My darling we're both on the wing Look down and keep on singing and we can go anywhere Are you there (Are you there) (Are you there) (Are you there) Are you there (Are you there) (Are you there) (Are you there) Or are you just a decoy dream in my head Am I home or am I simply tumbling out alone I am floating away (Floating away) Lost in a silent ballet (Silent ballet) I'm dreaming you're out in the blue and I am right beside you Awake to take in the view Late nights and early parades (Early parades) Still photos and noisy arcades (Noisy arcades) My darling we're both on the wing look down and keep on singing And we can go anywhere Are you there (Are you there) (Are you there) (Are you there) Are you there (Are you there) (Are you there) (Are you there) |

High rise, veins of the avenue Bright eyes and subtle variations of blue Everywhere is balanced there like a rainbow above you Street lights glisten on the boulevard And cold nights make staying alert so hard For heaven's sake, keep me awake so I won't be caught off guard Clearly I am a passerby but I'll find a place to stay Dear pacific day, won't you take me away? Small town hearts of the New Year Brought down by gravity, crystal clear City fog and brave dialogue converge on the frontier Make haste, I feel your heartbeat With new taste for speed, out on the street Find a road to a humble abode where both of our routes meet The silver sound is all around and the colors fall like snow The feeling of letting go, I guess we'll never know Cheer up and dry your damp eyes and tell me when it rains And I'll blend up that rainbow above you and shoot it through your veins Cuz your heart has a lack of color and we should've known That we'd grow up sooner or later cuz we wasted all our free time alone Your nerves gather with the altitude Exhale the stress so you don't come unglued Somewhere there is a happy affair, a ghost of a good mood Wide eyed, panic on the getaway The high tide could take me so far away VCR's and motorcars unite on the Seventh Day A popular gauge will measure the rage of the new Post-Modern Age Cuz somewhere along the line all the decades align We were the crashing whitecaps On the ocean And what lovely seaside holiday, away A palm tree in Christmas lights My emotion Struck a sparkling tone like a xylophone As we spent the day alone |

Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] So lovely She was everything to me [Verse 2] 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 [Verse 3] 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 [CHORUS 2X] [Verse 2] |

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 planes that aren’t there anymore I was feeling the night grow old and you were looking so cold 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 is just never 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? We need time, only time When we’re apart whatever 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 Can you believe that the crew has gone and wouldn’t let me sign on? All my islands have sunk in the deep, so I can hardly relax or even oversleep I feel as if I were home some nights when we count all the ship lights I guess I’ll never know why sparrows love the snow We’ll turn off all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow |

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 don't know How far these interstates go Or how deep the city routes go down In chilly subdepth 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 skyways And crowded six lane highways If I look back when I begin to leave Will they remember me? Circuit flights bend the light 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 Tell me where you're gonna take us |

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 sub stick to 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 |

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 suprise And I woke up beside the ocean and I realized I must be in California Aloha, my happy west coast friends Do you feel alive when the breaking waves arrive and rush all around you? The beach homes in Oceanside 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 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 suprise And I woke up beside the ocean and I realized I must be in California I must be in California 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'll never feel alone in your arms I must be in California I must be in California Oh my dear, I can feel you here |

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 the station walls, the colors run To fill the swimming pool, when I am done I am the captain of an oil tanker that travels through your veins When the satellites hang all around And I can finally hear the lovely sound When all the engines in the back room 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 through 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 shipyard When I rearrange, the silverware And re-install the lights, in captain's chair I'll lift the ceiling off to breathe the ocean air I am the engineer of forty freight trains that travel through 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 And all around you in the traffic and city lights |

I am stuck in L.A. Through the week and cant get away And you're alone on the pier In West Palm Beach on your holiday Stormy night, re-awake 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 its 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 skies 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 its 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 cant believe things are really that bad Old captains and brand new cruise ships Sailing over the briny sea When I crashed my beloved desk job And swim through the debris Ill cut loose and leave this mad house, bound for the Atlantic blue Ill stroll down your tree-lined driveway, and sail the ocean with you |

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 You went from numbered lines to buildings overhead |

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 lightening bugs As they tried to teach me how to dance. A foxtrot above my head, A sock-hop beneath my bed, The 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 Because my dreams are bursting at the seams |

from Owl City - Peppermint Winter [single] (2010)
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 we 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 What's December without Christmas Eve |

Tick off the time-bomb, Let felicity fly! Armour the airlock, Blanket the bedrock, And kiss the planet goodbye! Dear God, I was terribly lost, When the galaxies crossed, And the Sun went dark. Dear God, You're the only North Star, I would follow this far. Fight back the flight deck, Bring on the breakneck, Cue the solar eclipse! Summit the sunset, Dubtail the dragnet, And blow your backbone to bits! Dear God, I was terribly lost, When the galaxies crossed, And the Sun went dark. Dear God, You're the only North Star, I would follow this far. Oh telescope, keep an eye on my only hope, Lest I blink and be swept off the narrow road. Hercules, you've got nothing to say to me, 'Cause you're not the blinding light that I need. For He is the saving grace of the Galaxies!

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. And you know love could shine this bright. Well smile because you're the deer in the 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 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. And you know love could shine this bright. Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights. Its 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. And you know love could shine this bright. Well sorry I ever tried, deer in the headlights. Tell me again was it love at first sight When I walked by and you caught my eye. And you know love could shine this bright. If love 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 a deer in the headlights. You're the deer in the headlights. You're the deer in the headlights. |

I saw the autumn leaves peel up off the street,
take wing on the balmy breeze and sweep you off your feet. 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 want to live there. I wouldn’t wanna live there! Weighed down by heavy lids and lunar lullabies, I knew you were wide awake because you smile with your eyes. Downy feathers kiss your face and flutter everywhere. Reality is a lovely place but I wouldn’t want to 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, because 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. 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 want to live there. I wouldn’t want to live there! I saw the autumn leaves peel up off the street, take wing on the balmy breeze and sweep you off your feet. |

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 was sleeping with the night light unplugged When a note on the rocking chair That says, I've been dreaming of the life I once loved So wake me if you're out there Living close to the ground Is seventh Heaven cause there are angels all around Among my frivolous thoughts I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts 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 Cuz I'll be pickin' up the acorns that fall off If you'll be climbing up to meet me Living close to the ground Is seventh Heaven cause there are angels all around Among my frivolous thoughts I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts Wake me if you're out there I keep my knees black and blue cause they often hit the hard wood floor Wake me if you're out there And I believe so I'm not praying to the ceiling anymore I was sleeping with the night light unplugged When a note on the rocking chair That says, I've been dreaming of the life I once loved So wake me if you're out there Living close to the ground Is seventh Heaven cuase there are angels all around Among my frivolous thoughts I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts The indications revealed Wake me if you're out there That few of us realize life is quite surreal So if you're dying to see I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity So if you're dying to see I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity |

Splash down in the silver screen
Into a deep dramatic scene I swim through the theater Or maybe I'm just a dreamer Like a kite in the bright midday Wonder stole my breath away Shy sonata for Mercury The stars always sing so pretty This picnic will soon depart Real life, I'm sad to see you go I'll miss you with all my heart But I'd rather be alone 'Cause I couldn't live without Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk So I'll drag the anchor up And rest assured 'cause dreams don't turn to dust Dreams don't turn to dust I made for the countryside And my eyes never grew so wide Apple raspberry river blue I don't wanna leave without you In the sound I gladly drowned Into the emerald underground I rub my eyes 'cause it's hard to see Surrounded by all this beauty This picnic will soon depart Real life, I'm sad to see you go I'll miss you with all my heart But I'd rather be alone 'Cause I couldn't live without Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk So I'll drag the anchor up And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust When tiger eyes begin making you blush When diamonds boast that they can't be crushed Let 'em go 'cause dreams don't turn to dust This picnic will soon depart Real life, I'm sad to see you go I'll miss you with all my heart But I'd rather be alone 'Cause I couldn't live without Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk So I'll drag the anchor up And rest assured 'cause dreams don't turn to dust Dreams don't turn to dust Dreams don't turn to dust And rest assured 'cause dreams don't turn to dust |

Don't remind me That some days I'm a windshield And other days I'm just a lucky bug As cold iron rails leave Old mossy trails through the countryside The crow and the bean field Are my best friends but Boy, I need a hug (boy, I need a hug) Cuz 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 Cuz when the stars silhouette me I'm scared they'll forget me And flicker out I chase 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 So 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 Until you suddenly bloomed Then I knew That I'd always love you (And I'd 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?

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 this scene A blurry image of wreckage and roadside debris Happiness returned to me through a grave emergency I tossed and turned and stared out at the fields 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 this 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 Because 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 this 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 Happiness returned to me through a grave emergency |

is bitter sweet 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 As Cinderella dropped the crystal ball And made a concrete cavern of 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 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 Don't sweat under your overcoat 'Cause my heart can't hover 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 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 When we join The Yacht Club |

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 [Rap Verse 1: ~Shawn Chrystopher~] Uh uh, 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 ceiling is painted with cosmic spaces Firecracker to the moon, keep your eyes shut Blastin' off like a rocket from the ground up Heh, 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 Got that so If you need me you can find me in the alligator sky [Chorus:] 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 [Bridge:] Roller coaster through the atmosphere I'm drowning in this starry serenade Where ecstasy becomes cavalier My imagination's taking 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 taking me away [Rap Verse 2: ~Shawn Chrystopher~] Uh, now I'mma 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 [Chorus:] 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... 가사입력NAKMUSE |

from Owl City - Lonely Lullaby [single] (2011)
Symphony of silver tears
Sing to me and sooth the ring in my ears Overcast these gloomy nights wear on But I'm holding fast, cause it's darkest just before the dawn I sang my princess fast asleep Cause she was my dream come true Oh Annmarie, believe me, I loved you But now those lonely lullabies Just dampen my tired eyes Because I can't forget you Because I can't forget you I'll dissolve when the rain pours in When the nightmares take me I will scream with the howling wind 'Cause it's a bitter world and I'd rather dream Dizzy love turned a star lily pink And hung above our lids too flushed to blink But icy blue froze the fairytale cold Though I treasured you and you sparkled with someone to hold I sang my princess fast asleep 'Cause she was my dream come true Oh Annmarie, believe me, I loved you But now those lonely lullabies Just dampen my tired eyes Because I can't forget you Because I can't forget you I'll dissolve when the rain pours in When the nightmares take me I will scream with the howling wind 'Cause it's a bitter world and I'd rather dream I'll dissolve when the rain pours in When the nightmares take me I will scream with the howling wind 'Cause it's a bitter world and I'd rather dream And I'd rather dream Annmarie, I'll never forget you Annmarie, I'll never forget you Annmarie, remember me? I'll never forget you Annmarie, remember me? I'll never forget you Annmarie, remember me? I'll never forget you |

Take my hand, I'll teach you to dance. I'll spin you around, won't let you fall down. Would you let me lead, you can step on my feet. Give it a try, it'll be alright. The room's hush, hush, And now's our moment. Take it in feel it all and hold it. Eyes on you, eyes on me. We're doing this right. Cause lovers dance when they're feeling in love. Spotlight shinning, it's all about us. It's oh, oh, oh, oh, all about uh, uh, uh, uh, us. And every heart in the room will melt, This is a feeling I've never felt but, It's oh, oh, all about us. Suddenly, I'm feeling brave. Don't know what's got into me, Why I feel this way. Can we dance, real slow? Can I hold you, real close? The room's hush, hush, And now's our moment. Take it in feel it all and hold it. Eyes on you, eyes on me. We're doing this right. Cause lovers dance when they're feeling in love. Spotlight shinning, it's all about us. It's oh, oh, oh, oh, all about uh, uh, uh, uh, us. And every heart in the room will melt, This is a feeling I've never felt but, It's oh, oh, all about us. Do you hear that love? They're playing our song. Do you think we're ready? Oh I'm really feeling it. Do you hear that love? Do you hear that love? Do you hear that love? They're playing our song. Do you think we're ready yet? Love I'm really feeling it. Do you hear that love? Do you hear that love? Do you hear that love? They're playing our song. Do you think we're ready yet? Love I'm really feeling it. Do you hear that love? Do you hear that love? Lovers dance when they're feeling in love. Spotlight shinning, it's all about us. It's all, all, all, all.

from Owl City - Shooting Star [ep] (2012)
Close your tired eyes
relaxing them Count from 1 to 10 and open them All these 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 When the sun goes down and the lights burn out Then it's time for you to shine Brighter than the shooting star so shine no matter where you are Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light 'cause it's time for you to shine Brighter than a shooting star so shine no matter where you are tonight Wooh wooh wooh Brighter than a shooting star Shine no matter where you are tonight Gazing through my eyes when the fire starts And fan the flame so hot it melt our hearts All the pouring rain will try to put it out but not this time Let your colours burn and brightly burst into a million sparks but all dispursed and illuminate a world That'll try to bring you down But not this time When the sun goes down and the lights burn out Then it's time for you to shine Brighter than the shooting star so shine no matter where you are Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light 'cause it's time for you to shine Brighter than a shooting star so shine no matter where you are tonight Wooh wooh wooh Brighter than a shooting star Shine no matter where you are tonight A thousand heartbeats beating time and makes this dark planet come alive So when the lights flicker out tonight you gotta shine When the sun goes down and the lights burn out Then it's time for you to shine Brighter than the shooting star so shine no matter where you are Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light 'cause it's time for you to shine Brighter than a shooting star so shine no matter where you are tonight Wooh wooh wooh Brighter than a shooting star Shine no matter where you are tonight jmlee9980님께서 등록해주신 가사입니다. |
