night sky - andrew bird lyrics

Loading...

sound is a wave, like a wave on the ocean
moon plays the ocean like a violin
pushing and pulling from sh-r- to sh-r-
biggest melody you never heard before

[chorus]
if i were the night sky
here’s my lullaby
lullaby to leave by
if i were the night

what if we hadn’t been born at the same time?
what if you’re seventy five and i were nine?
would i come visit you?
bring you cookies in an old folks home?
would you be there alone?

and when the late summer lightning
fires off in your arms
will i remember to breathe?
no, i never will, no
and the fire could convince you that i mean you no harm
just wanna show you how not to need

[chorus]

what if we hadn’t been each other at the same time?
would you tell me all the stories
from when you were young and in your prime?
would i rock you to sleep?
would you tell me all the secrets you don’t need to
keep?
would i still miss you?
oh, would you then
have been mine?

sound is a wave, like a wave on the ocean
moon plays the ocean like a violin
pushing and pulling from sh-r- to sh-r-
biggest melody you never heard before

[chorus]
