Boats & Birds Lyrics
Gregory And The Hawk
Lyrics
if you'll be my star
i'll be your sky
you can hide underneath me and come out at night
when i turn jet black and you show off your light
i live to let you shine
i live to let you shine
but you can skyrocket away from me
and never come back if you find another galaxy
far from here, with moor room to fly
just leave me your stardust to remember you by
if you'll be my boat
i'll be your sea __
a depth of pure blue just to probe curiosity
ebbing and flowing and pushed by a breeze
i live to make you free
but you can set sail to the west if you want to
and past the horizon till i can't even see you
far from here, where the beaches are wide
just leave me your wake to remember you by
????? ??/??? 1156.....
if you'll be my star
i'll be your sky
you can hide underneath me and come out at night
when i turn jet black and you show off your light
i live to let you shine
but you can skyrocket away from me
and never come back if you find another galaxy
far from here, with moor room to fly
just leave me your stardust to remember you by
