Night Sky by Andrew Bird
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
[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
