Sifters |
| Sound is a wave, like a wave on the ocean |
| Moon plays the ocean like a violin |
| Pushing and pulling from shore to shore |
| Biggest melody you never heard before |
| 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 |
| 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 shore to shore |
| Biggest melody you never heard before |
