Owl City - The Yacht Club Lyrics

My raw candy passion 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 maché,(Lights: Let's dance in the moonlight!)
A barracuda chased our dog days away, forever,
Let's sink or swim, 'til we fall in love,(Lights: And dance in the moonlight!)
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,(Lights: And dance in the moonlight!)
 
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 maché,(Lights: Let's dance in the moonlight!)
A barracuda chased our dog days away, forever,
Let's sink or swim, 'til we fall in love,(Lights: And dance in the moonlight!)
When we join The Yacht Club.


(Lights)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,

(Lights:) 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 maché,(Lights: Let's dance in the moonlight!)
A barracuda chased our dog days away, forever,
Let's sink or swim, 'til we fall in love,(Lights: And dance in the moonlight!)
When we join The Yacht Club.

(Lights:) Let's dance in the moonlight,
When we join The Yacht Club

Owl City - Honey and the Bee Lyrics

Don't remind me
That some days I'm the windshield
And other days I'm just a lucky bug
These cold iron rails
Leave old mossy trails
Through the countryside
The crow and the beanfield
All my best friends, but boy I need a hug

(Boy I need a hug)

'Cause 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
'Cause when the stars silhouette me
I'm scared they'll forget me and flicker out
I taste 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
Owl City Honey And The Bee lyrics found on
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
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
To be suddenly bloomed
And I knew that I'd always love you

Oh, I'll 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
Who knew the other side could be so green

If I reached for your hand for the rest of my life
Who knew the other side could be so green

Owl City - Kamikaze Lyrics

The princess in her flowerbed,
Pulled the jungle underground,
Where cherry bombs stain the blackbird's red,
And explosions never make a sound.

Oh comet come down!
Kamikaze over me,
And come alive!
My midnight melody!
Oh comet come down!

My captain on the snowy horse,
He's coming back to take me home,
(He's coming back to take me home!)
He'll find me fighting back the terrible thwarts,
'Cause I'm not afraid to die alone.

Oh comet come down!

Kamikaze over me,
And come alive!
My midnight melody!

Oh comet come down!

Kamikaze over me,
And come alive!
My midnight melody!

Oh comet come down!

Maybe I'll write,
To save my life,
Maybe I'll fly,
The eagle eye!
(Eagle eye, eagle eye, eagle eye, eagle eye, eagle eye, eagle eye, eagle eye).

Owl City - To The Sky Lyrics

Shipwreck in the sea of faces,
There's a dreamy world up there,
Dear friends in higher places,
Carry me away from here,
Travel light let the sun eclipse you,
'Cause your flight is about to leave,
And there's more to this brave adventure,
Than you'd ever believe,

Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you,
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue,
Chase your dreams, and remember me, speak bravery,
'Cause after all those wings will take you, up so high,
So bid the forest floor goodbye, as you brace the wind and,
Take to the sky,

On the hills of lore and wonder,
There's a stormy world up there,
You can't whisper above the thunder,
But you can fly anywhere,
Purple burst of paper birds this,
Picture paints a thousand words,
So take a breath of mist and mystery,
And don't look back!

Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you,
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue,
Chase your dreams, and remember me, speak bravery,
'Cause after all those wings will take you, up so high,
So bid the forest floor goodbye, as you brace the wind and,
Take to the sky,
There's a realm above the trees,
Where the lost are finally found,
Touch your feathers to the breeze,
And leave the ground,
Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you,
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue,
Chase your dreams, and remember me, speak bravery,
'Cause after all those wings will take you, up so high,
So bid the forest floor goodbye, as you brace the wind and,
Take to the sky,
Birdseye view, awake the stars 'cause they're all around you,
Wide eyes will always brighten the blue,
Chase your dreams, and remember me, speak bravery,
Because after all those wings will take you, up so high,
So bid the forest floor goodbye, as you brace the wind and,
Take to the sky.

Owl City - Enchanted Lyrics

There I was again tonight forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired, lonely place
Walls of insincerity
Shifting eyes and vacancy vanished when I saw your face
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you

Your eyes whispered "have we met?"
Across the room your silhouette starts to make it's way to me
The playful conversation starts
Counter all your quick remarks like passing notes in secrecy
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you
Oh Taylor I was so enchanted to meet you too

This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you too

The lingering question kept me up
2AM, who do you love?
I wondered till I'm wide awake
Now I'm pacing back and forth, wishing you were at my door
I'd open up and you would say,
Hey it was enchanting to meet you
Oh Taylor I was so enchanted to meet you too

This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you too

This is me praying that this was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name until I see you again
These are the words I held back as I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you too
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you

This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
Taylor I'll spend my whole life wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you too

I was never in love with someone else
I never had somebody waiting on me
'Cause you were all of my dreams come true
And I just wish you knew
Taylor I was so in love with you.

Train - Hey Soul Sister Lyrics

Hey, hey, hey

Your lipstick stains on the front lobe of my left side brains
I knew I wouldn't forget you, and so I went and let you blow my mind
Your sweet moon beam, the smell of you in every single dream I dream
I knew when we collided, you're the one I have decided who's one of my kind

Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight
Hey, hey,hey

Just in time, I'm so glad you have a one-track mind like me
You gave my life direction, a game show love connection we can't deny
I'm so obsessed, my heart is bound to beat right out my untrimmed chest
I believe in you, like a virgin, you're Madonna, and I'm always gonna wanna blow your mind

Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight

The way you can cut a rug, watching you's the only drug I need
You're so gangsta, I'm so thug, you're the only one I'm dreaming of
You see, I can be myself now finally, in fact there's nothing I can't be
I want the world to see you be with me

Hey soul sister, ain't that Mr. Mister on the radio, stereo, the way you move ain't fair, you know!
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do tonight,
Hey soul sister, I don't want to miss a single thing you do...tonight
Hey, hey,hey

Tonight

Hey, hey,hey

Tonight

Sky Sailing

Sky Sailing was started as Adam Young's first solo project in 2006, before he started performing and recording as Owl City in 2007, though he left the project in favor of Owl City. One album has been released by the project - An Airplane Carried Me to Bed which was released on July 13, 2010, and features some of the early recordings of Adam Young, before he toured as Owl City. Upon the release of An Airplane Carried Me to Bed, Adam Young described the collection of songs on the Sky Sailing website:
I've kept these recordings secret for a long time and they've never seen the light of day until now. Long before Owl City was ever a spark of a flame, a lot of blue-collared working days were spent absentmindedly daydreaming about what would ultimately become this collection of songs. From the perfectionist musician's perspective, a song is never truly 'finished' but rather 'abandoned' and thus, after a lot of inspiration and reckless experimentation, I emerged from the basement with an 11 song record which I affectionately entitled, An Airplane Carried Me To Bed." - Adam Young
