Sky Sailing

Postby Carbon » Wed Sep 11, 2013 5:48 pm

    Sailboats wish that they were stars,
    Floating softly in the sky
    Among our dreams that pay goodbye

    Moving through transparent space,
    Drifting through the stratosphere
    And onward 'till they disappear

    These continents from overhead
    Look like tiny paper shapes
    Intricately set in place

    Below the misty mountain clouds
    Theres a lovely silver bay
    Where sunset sailors often hideaway

    Scuba diver in the lock,
    Speedboat driver on the dock
    Sailplane pilot in the blue take me up there with you
    The world looks brighter from this high altitude

    I was walking through the trees (Sailboats wish they were stars)
    And I was swimming through the sea (Cause they don't know who they are)
    I was falling through the air
    When it hit me right there...
    My eyes are tired; I don't even care

    An airplane carried me to bed,
    Where i slept above the coast
    And dreamt I had become a ghost

    I sail above the frozen peaks,
    Deep in cold cathedral caves
    Across the hills and far beyond the waves

    Take the car on the lawn
    Fly the jet to the sun
    And bring the spacecraft
    'n soon while I play chess with the moon
    I feel like sleeping through this cold afternoon

    Once in 1964 (Sailboats wish they were stars)
    An actress ran on the shore (Cause they don't know who they are)

    And though you'll never return,
    I love you Audrey Hepburn
    Sometimes I can see your face in the crowd

    There are sailboats throughout this brilliant sky
    But you cannot pick them out if you can't fly
    I'm glad the Earth doesn't care
    If I go up there
    If you want to just ask me and I will take you along..
