owl city - the technicolor phase lyrics

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)

(wherever you are) 3x

owl city - saltwater room lyrics

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

owl city - vanilla twilight lyrics

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"

owl city - this is the future lyrics

Wake up on your own
And look around you cuz you're not alone
Release your high hopes and they'll survive
Cuz 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're not alone
Let your hopes go and they'll survive
Cuz this is the future and you are alive
You're headed home
(You're headed home)

owl city - strawberry avalanche lyrics

This is a world of dreams and reverie
Where I felt the stars explode around me.
A grasp light flashed with a gleam as it slashed open a moon beam
And I stared back breathlessly as mountains of fruit tumbled out;
I barely had the chance to shout.
A strawberry avalanche crashed over me.

Staying awake that night was rather hard
Deep in a sleeping bag in your backyard.
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 crashed over me.

Always a citrus constellation in the galaxy, scratched on the back
Of both my eye lids that I've been dying to see.
If you were a beautiful sound and the echo's all around,
Then I'd be your harmony and we'd sing along with the crowds
Beneath the candy coated clouds of strawberry avalanche, jeez, crashed over me.

See the world of dreams and reverie where I felt the stars explode around me.

owl city - sky diver lyrics

I stood up and took a breath
and threw open the bay doors
Below the clouds I saw the coast
and beautiful Hawaii

Leaning back, the pilot smiled
and shouted, "Have a good trip!"
I signed off and closed my eyes
Then I was falling through the sky

Leaning back, the pilot smiled
and shouted, "Have a good trip!"
I signed off and closed my eyes
Then I was falling through the sky

owl city - on the wing lyrics

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


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
'Cause I Would Make A Hook And I
Can Fish Them From The Sky
My Darling, She And I
Were Hanging On, So Take Us High
To Sing The World Goodbye


[Chorus]
I Am Floating Away
Lost In A Silent Ballet
I'm Dreaming You're Out In The Blue
And I Am Right Beside You
Await 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?


[Chorus]
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
(And I Am Right Beside You)
Await 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
(Look Down And Keep On Singing)
And We Can Go Anywhere
(And We Can Go Anywhere)


Are You There?
Are You There?
