Adam, Check Please lyrics - Owl City

I said

Hey, I'm looking for Casey Connor

Here's my resume

I'm looking for a part-time job

And I can start today

Well, I heard you needed some help in frozen

With Eric leaving soon

My boss shook my hand and I began

That Monday after school

That Monday after school

So thank you kindly

I owe ya, Hy-Vee

Eating cold pizza in the break room

Feeling kinda small

A skinny kid with a crooked tie

My name tag said it all

It said

"Adam, Frozen, 1 Years Of Service"

But I felt like the man

And I made it rain when payday came

Cuz that was all I had

So thank you kindly

I owe ya, Hy-Vee

Yeah I owe ya

Yeah I owe ya, Hy-Vee

(Adam, check please)

Ooh, na da da da da da da

Yeah I'll be filling up the Cool Whip

(Adam, check please)

If the lines are getting long

You know that you can call me

(Adam, check, Adam, check please)

Over the intercom

And I'll be there in a jiffy

(Adam, check please) (Help is on the way)

Ooh, na da da da da da da (Help is on the way, help is on the way)

Yeah I'll be filling up the Cool Whip (Help is on the way)

(Adam, check please) (Help is on the way)

Na da da da da da da (Help is on the way, help is on the way)

Everything is beautiful (Help is on the way)

(Adam, check, Adam, check please) (Help is on the way)

Yeah I promise I'm on the way (Help is on the way)

(Everything is beautiful) (Help is on the way)And I'll be there in a jiffy

Because

Stocking shelves was how I learned

To do my level best and take pride in my work

Cuz you never know when it's your turn

To climb the ladder of success

Show the world what you do best

Yeah you were made for this

Hey, I'm looking for Casey Connor

It seems like yesterday

I paid my dues in frozen foods

And I just wanna say

God bless the helpful smile in every aisle

I couldn't ask for more

And I'm glad I got my first real job

Working in this grocery store

In this grocery store

In this grocery store

So thank you kindly

(Yeah, you mean the world to me)

I owe ya, Hy-Vee

Yeah I owe ya

Don't stop until you reach the stars

Climb the ladder of success

Show the world what you do best

Yeah you were made for this

So chase your passion and not your paycheck

Be proud of what you have

And put in the work until your signature

Becomes an autograph

(Adam, check please) (Help is on the way)

Ooh, na da da da da da da (Help is on the way, help is on the way)

Yeah I'll be filling up the Cool Whip (Help is on the way)

(Adam, check please) (Help is on the way)

I'm on my way (Help is on the way)

I'm filling up the Cool Whip (Help is on the way, help is on the way)

(Adam, check, Adam, check please) (Help is on the way)

Yeah I promise I'm on the way now (Help is on the way)

(Everything is beautiful) (Help is on the way, help is on the way)

That friendly smile (Help is on the way)

In every aisle guaranteed (Help is on the way)

(Everything is beautiful) (Help is on the way)

That your day was breezy (Help is on the way)

All those hours (Help is on the way)

And store-bought flowers set me free (Help is on the way)

(Everything is beautiful) (Help is on the way)

And freedom meant the world to me (Help is on the way)

That friendly smile (Help is on the way)

In every aisle guaranteed (Help is on the way)

(Everything is beautiful) (Help is on the way)

That your day was breezy (Help is on the way)

All those hours (Help is on the way)

And store-bought flowers set me free (Help is on the way, help is on the way)

And freedom meant the world to me (Help is on the way)

(You know that help is on the way)

Under The Circus Lights lyrics - Owl City

Once upon a summer

A traveling circus came to town

From the land down under

And I was filled with wonder

When I saw the girl on the flying trapeze

Tear through the air with the greatest of ease

I got cotton candy

And then in a daze, I met her gaze

And she winked right at me

And my heart pounded madly

When I saw the girl on the flying trapeze

Capture the crowd with the greatest of ease

She was a light in a dark lullaby

That girl was raised by a butterfly

I swear when I caught her eye, I could almost fly

And under the circus lights

I must have fallen in love that night

Lighter than a feather

But careful, as with a heavy heart

She seemed to fall forever

And then I wondered whether

I noticed the girl on the flying trapeze

Blink back a tear with the greatest of ease

And she took my breath away

Oh so grand and graceful

Confetti rained as she climbed through the air

Like a homesick angel

"She makes heartache painful"

I thought as the girl on the flying trapeze

Melted my heart with the greatest of ease

What a display of rosé poetry

What a majestic menagerie

I swear when I caught her eye, I could almost fly

And under the circus lights

I must have fallen in love that night

Ladies and gentlemen

Welcome to the most spectacular show on Earth

And she took my breath away

I was so enamored

And she took my breath away

All that glitz and glamor

And she took my breath away

I was so enamored

And that's how the girl on the flying trapeze

Knocked me off my feet with the greatest of ease

And then with a charming sweetness

She smiled and waved and took a bow

For a crowd stunned speechless

And I was charmed to pieces

When the girl on the flying trapeze

Magically dissolved like a song on the breeze

And simply broke my heart with the greatest of ease

We shook the floor with a roar of applause

She seemed to drown in the oohs and aahs

I hung around 'til the clowns

Tore the big top down

And soon it was almost dawn

I looked and looked but the girl was gone

Deep down I felt kinda blue

For a day or two

Then clear as a bell, I knew

I would run away with the circus too

Kelly Time lyrics - Owl City

Well video tapes and ice skates

Are beautiful things

Like a birthday card for Johnny

And a pair of angel wings

You were tryna light a fire

And all you wanted was a match

But you knew I didn't have one

So it was odd that you should ask

No, it wasn't just the plane crash

That shook you to the core

But the very thought of losing her

That made it all worth dying for

I'm sorry

I'm sorry

We both washed up on that island

All alone without a friend

Thinking you and I were gonna die there

And that would be the end

But as the weeks turned into months

I saw you overcome your fears

And as we became companions

All those months turned into years

When we would talk and talk for hours

You would make sure I felt heard

'Cause you knew what I was saying

Though I never said a word

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

I'm ready for anything

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Who knows what the tide could bring?

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Yeah, I'm ready for anything

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Who knows what the tide could bring?

After fifteen hundred days

You and me escaped to sea

And I knew that you still loved the girl

From Memphis, Tennessee

Out there on that lonely ocean

We met a passing humpback whale

'Cause all the way from Bakersfield

The tide gave us a sail

And just like that it happened

The waves took me away

And I'm sorry, I'm so sorry

That you lost a friend that day

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

I'm ready for anything

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Who knows what the tide could bring?

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Yeah, I'm ready for anything

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Who knows what the tide could bring?

Well you and me went on a journey

Full of tragedy and pain

But I'm grateful I was with you

Through the sunshine and the rain

And when I wonder where ya are now

I'll probably never know

But my friend I hope you made it

And somehow you finally made it home

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

I have an ocean-worth of questions

But if I do know one thing

It's that the sun will rise tomorrow

And who knows what the tide could bring?

Da da da da daa

(Goodbye, my friend)

I'll never forget you

Doo doo doo doo ooh ooh ooh

Hey, hey, hey, Kelly are you there? Pick up!

I know I said I'd be back

And like that

Nobody knew where I was at

And all my logic said I would never see you again

After four years, I'm missin' you so bad

But here I am

And now I have to learn to let you go

Even though I love you more than you'll ever know

I'm gettin' used to have a heart and the way things are

But Kelly, I never should've gotten outta the car

I'm sorry

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

I'm ready for anything

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Who knows what the tide could bring?

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Yeah, I'm ready for anything

Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

Who knows what the tide could bring?

I'm sorry

For everything

But nobody knows what the tide could bring

You know, nobody knows what the tide could bring

Videotapes and ice skates are beautiful things

Like a pocket watch on Kelly Time and a pair of angel wings

Oh, and the birthday card to Johnny

It made me realize

That the most beautiful thing in the world

Is, of course, the gift of life

The most beautiful thing in the world

Is to be so wonderfully alive

Field Notes lyrics - Owl City

We were heading on home, Diesel and me

Down an old gravel road, way out in the country

Tuckered out after working the fields all day

When all of a sudden, off like a shot

That dog took off running, barking his head off

Wherever he went, he went like there was hell to pay

So lickety-split, I crashed through the fields

Chasing after that hound and I was hot on his heels

When we both went over the edge of a deep ravine

As I crawled up the bank, cold and soaked to the bone

A glint caught my eye from the mud where it shone

Something was buried there, alongside a stream

Now the middle of a field is a pretty odd place

To find some kind of trunk or a chest or a crate

But buried under the earth, I saw a corner exposed

No there wasn't a map or a note or a key

It was clearly forgotten, just waiting for me

Like I was supposed to find it there, right under my nose

It had laid there for years, deep in the dirt

So I dug it out and wiped my hands on my shirt

I pried up the lid and excitedly peered inside

And what I saw was a sight to behold

Cuz that tattered old trunk was crammed full of gold

My eyes bugged out, it was enough to make a grown man cry

Big golden bricks with a shimmery sheen

They were a staggering sight to a poor boy like me

But right then and there I knew what I had to do

So with a smile, I sold what little I had

I gave my pots and my pans to my mom and my dad

And then I bought that field cuz it was my dream come true

And then, full of joy, I said goodbye to my shack

It wasn't much of a home, so I never looked back

And I never questioned the choice I happily made

I said I need that field, whatever it takes

You might call it foolish, but I'd call it faith

Trusting in God so gladly, you can't hardly wait

And that's how I learned how a rich fella counts

His treasure in heaven, not under the ground

Cuz betting the farm is well worth the risk

To carefully keep such a beautiful gift

That's yours forever, it's a pretty good deal

There's a couple of things more precious than gold

One is your heart and the other's your soul

And you got something unique that nobody can steal

It's a fable, you see, and the moral is this

Your heart's with your treasure, wherever it is

And trust me, when you dig

A treasure will be revealed

And you never know what could be buried in the middle of a field

Sons Of Thunder lyrics - Owl City

We are the new sons of thunder

We are uncrushable diamonds of light

We are the daughters of wonder

And when we leave the Earth

With a shower of sparks

We'll meet in the sky

And we'll walk among the stars

When we walk among the stars

The pleasure will be ours

And with young, unbroken hearts

We'll walk among the stars

Cuz we belong

Above the heavens and beyond

Oh, we are the odd music-makers

We are the dreamers of unusual dreams

We all face the forces of nature

But bravely, we'll take

Great leaps of faith

And then just like that

We'll walk upon the waves

Cuz we belong

Out on the ocean and beyond

We'll fly

We'll fly

We'll fly

In the twinkling of an eye

You and I

We'll fly

We are the heirs of adventure

And we are explorers of wondrous new worlds

We are the gifted inventors

And even though we are strange

And exquisitely scarred

We won't need to pretend to be anything we aren't

When we walk among the stars

The pleasure will be ours

And with young, unbroken hearts

We'll walk among the stars

Filled with the fierceness of tigers

We're all too familiar with the fires of life

But we are resilient survivors

And one day, we'll be free of nefarious schemes

Of cruel twists of fate and evil kings and queens

Cuz we belong

Between the sunrise and beyond

We'll fly

In the twinkling of an eye

We'll fly

We'll fly

In the twinkling of an eye

You and I

We'll fly

Sons of thunder

Feel the wonder

You were made to run

And not be faint

So take heart, wild one

For there is a God

Who loves you to death

No matter what you've done

So don't lose hope

Cuz He will lead you home

Yeah we serve a God

Who loves us to death

No matter what we've done

So don't lose hope

Cuz He will lead us home

We'll fly

We'll fly

We'll fly

In the twinkling of an eye

You and I

We'll fly

When we walk among the stars

The pleasure will be ours

And with young, unbroken hearts

We'll walk among the stars

The Tornado lyrics - Owl City

It was just starting to drizzle as I walked out the door

But I've delivered papers in the rain like that before

Three thirty in the morning, I was happy as a lark

As I grabbed my bike and rode into the dark

I pedaled through the neighborhood, the weather on my mind

The wind was picking up and howling louder all the time

The sky churned like a cauldron and the distant thunder roared

And I knew that I was in for quite a storm

A little rain never hurt no one so I kept pressing on

And I tried to tell myself, it's always darkest before the dawn

Lightning struck an oak tree as I leapt off my bike

The sirens started wailing but there was no good place to hide

I knew without a doubt, there was a twister touching down

So I crawled into a culvert to wait it out

The little bit of courage I had left was almost gone

But I tried to tell myself, it's always darkest before the dawn

And then the nightmare started, it got deafeningly loud

Everything fiber in me screamed out but I couldn't make a sound

The whirling of a vortex, a violent carousel

It sounded like a freight train was dragging me to hell

And this was my prayer, "Save me from this terrible nightmare"

That was when I saw my family with my eyes shut real tight

Would they know how much I loved them if this was how I died?

No, I vowed I'd not be murdered by a monster in the sky that night

But if I went home to heaven, at least that's where I'd belong

Yeah I tried to tell myself, it's always darkest before the dawn

So I kept hanging on

I kept hanging on

The shadows slowly melted as I was hunkered down

Till at last the worst was over, the storm was dying out

I crept out of that culvert and I went weak in the knees

Cuz what I saw was a somber sight to see

There was nothing but destruction and wreckage in that town

Cars were upside down and houses leveled to the ground

A twisted trampoline was hanging from the power lines

I blinked a tear back cuz I felt lucky to be alive

And that was how I learned to live when you can run but you can't hide

How to feel trapped in a tunnel but come out the other side

Cuz with all the stormy weather in the world, you learn to take

Life one storm at a time, you don't have to be afraid

And now when there's bad weather on the way, I stay calm

And I keep hanging on because it's always darkest before the dawn

And I keep hanging on

I keep hanging on

Vitamin Sea lyrics - Owl City

Do-do-do, ooh-ooh

I think highly of Hawaii

Got a cheap flight and a plan

So heads up, Nancy, don't get antsy

While I'm working on my tan

'Cause it's crystal clear to me

A weekend in Waikiki is what I need

Yeah, I could use a sip of island serenity

'Cause when I need a vacation

I need some vitamin sea

Aloha, let the good tides roll

Aloha and mahalo

When I walk on the beach

I never wanna leave

'Cause when I get kinda salty

I need some vitamin sea

Yeah, I gotta go now

'Cause I'm a little worn down

And I'm a little burned out

And I need a vacation

Aloha, let the good tides roll

'Cause when I get kinda salty

I need some vitamin sea

Do-do-do, ooh-ooh

Sitting calmly by a palm tree

With a lemonade in my hand

I ain't concerned if I sunburn

I'll catch all the rays I can

'Cause when my gusto gets low

Then that's when I know

I have a tropical deficiency

And a little sand between my toes is the remedy

'Cause when I need a vacation

I need some vitamin sea

Aloha, let the good tides roll

Aloha and mahalo

When I walk on the beach

I never wanna leave

'Cause when I get kinda salty

I need some vitamin sea

Yeah, I gotta go now

'Cause I'm a little worn down

And I'm a little burned out

And I need a vacation

Aloha, let the good tides roll

'Cause when I get kinda salty

I need some vitamin sea

So BRB

I've gone coastal

'Cause when I feel a bit blue

I head for Honolulu

And I am happy as a clam

Do-do-do, ooh-ooh

So I'll put up my feet and tell all my troubles to the ocean breeze

'Cause sitting on a beach is cheaper than therapy

And when I need a vacation

I think you'll know where I'll be

Aloha, let the good tides roll

Yeah, the voice of the ocean

It speaks to my soul

And where my worries went

Well, I guess I don't know

So let the good tides roll

(I need a vacation

'Cause I'm kinda low

(Need a vacation)

Yeah, I gotta go now

'Cause I'm a little worn down

And I'm a little burned out

And I need a vacation

Aloha, let the good tides roll

Aloha, let's go!

'Cause when I get kinda salty

I need some vitamin sea

Yeah (I need a vacation)

I need some vitamin sea

I need a vacation

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

I'm on vacation

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da da

And I think I'm gonna stay forever

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

Yeah, I'm on vacation

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

And I think I'm gonna stay forever

Dinosaur Park lyrics - Owl City

Welcome to South Dakota

Here in early July

Tucked away in The Black Hills

On an especially starry night

A concrete green Brontosaurus

Has a subtle glint in her eye

Cuz under the moonlight

When the moment is right

Under the moonlight

Things come alive

In Dinosaur Park

Long after dark

I wonder what happens there

When no one's around

Does some kinda magic fill the air?

I won't ever prove

Statues can move

But I'd like to think they do

So I make believe

With all of my heart

There's magic afoot

Unseen in the dark

In Dinosaur Park

Boy, I love Rapid City

And that hilltop of beasts

When I gaze up at that T-Rex

It's like he's staring back at me

Yeah those old dinosaur sculptures

Fill my heart with awe and intrigue

Cuz under the moonlight

When the moment is right

Under the moonlight

Things come alive

In Dinosaur Park

Long after dark

I wonder what happens there

When no one's around

Does some kinda magic fill the air?

I won't ever prove

Statues can move

But I'd like to think they do

So I make believe

With all of my heart

There's magic afoot

Unseen in the dark

In Dinosaur Park

Cuz when the moon's sitting pretty

Above Rapid City

There's much more than meets the eye

And I can only imagine

What strange things could happen

When nobody's on Skyline Drive

And when I leave Minnesota

To see South Dakota

I got a lot of things on my mind

Cuz I can only imagine

What strange things could happen

Up on top of that hill at night

What do dinosaurs talk about

When they're alone?

Before the sun comes up

And they turn back to stone

Do they look down on the city lights

Even though they don't bat an eye?

And then at night, when the moon is bright

Do they come alive?

I have a sneaking suspicion inside

Cuz in Dinosaur Park

Long after dark

I wonder what happens there

When no one's around

Does some kinda magic fill the air?

I won't ever prove

Statues can move

But I'd like to think they do

I don't know how

And I don't know why

But I get the feeling deep down inside

There's magic afoot

In the middle of the night

Cuz when the moon's sitting pretty

Above Rapid City

There's much more than meets the eye

And I can only imagine

What strange things could happen

When nobody's on Skyline Drive

And when I leave Minnesota

To see South Dakota

I got a lot of things on my mind

Cuz I can only imagine

What strange things could happen

Up on top of that hill at night

In Dinosaur Park

In Dinosaur Park

Learn How To Surf lyrics - Owl City

I spent the summer in Santa Cruz

And I met a blonde on the beach

With lots of quirky tattoos

She had that old famous quote

"We're gonna need a bigger boat"

Two tiny waves on her toes

And turtle tracks on her collarbones

I asked her what they meant

And this is what she said

You gotta go with the flow

Cuz the tides always turn

And sink or swim, diving in

Is the best way to learn

Kick up the sand cuz your tan

Proves you lived through the burn

And when you wipe out, it's gonna hurt

You can't stop the waves

But you can learn how to surf

And by the way, it's okay

It could always be worse

Yeah when you wipe out, it's gonna hurt

You can't stop the waves

But you can learn how to surf

I met a blonde on the beach

With lots of quirky tattoos

She had a shark on her arm

A pirate shredding the gnar

An octopus wearing shades

And seagull wings on her shoulder blades

I asked her what they meant

And this is what she said

You gotta go with the flow

Cuz the tides always turn

And sink or swim, diving in

Is the best way to learn

Kick up the sand cuz your tan

Proves you lived through the burn

And when you wipe out, it's gonna hurt

You can't stop the waves

But you can learn how to surf

And by the way, it's okay

It could always be worse

Yeah when you wipe out, it's gonna hurt

You can't stop the waves

But you can learn how to surf

Go with the flow

Then she said when you're sad and you feel alone

Write them down, all your worries and woes

Go with the flow

Then fold em up, cork it shut and let that bottle go

And set your troubles afloat

She told me hey, seas the day

Know the ocean by heart

And if it don't float your boat

Learn to swim with the sharks

Kick up the sand cuz your tan

Proves you lived through the burn

And when you wipe out, it's gonna hurt

You can't stop the waves

Yeah when you wipe out, it's gonna hurt

You can't stop the waves

But you can learn how to surf

Learn how to surf

And by the way, it's okay

It could always be worse

Yeah when you wipe out, it's gonna hurt

You can't stop the waves

But you can learn how to surf

The Meadow Lark lyrics - Owl City

Upon a winding forest road

I met a soldier, far from home

I saw he was my enemy

So I aimed at him and he at me

Prepared was I but loath to shoot

And he, uncertain what to do

A cold sweat formed upon my brow

But we both kept rank and stood our ground

And then a curious thing occurred

On wings arrived a tiny bird

And troubled not by war or peace

She sang for us a melody

Oh, oh, ooh

Oh, oh, ooh

I dared not move or look away

Lest my life, my foe would take

Yet in his eyes I saw his fright

Just a boy like me, afraid to die

The meadow lark sang on and on

Then more arrived and joined the song

And as I held my rival's stare

A tremendous chorus filled the air

Then in my heart, as clear as day

I heard a gentle whisper say

My son, if my disciple be

Show grace and love your enemy

Oh, oh, ooh

Oh, oh, ooh

With swell of birdsong all around

Lowered I, my rifle down

And as my foe took aim at me

I showed him yield on bended knee

He faltered then and shook with fear

And from his eye he wiped a tear

His gaze was as a brother's bond

And then he turned and he was gone

Oh, oh, ooh

Oh, oh, ooh, ooh

If I should live to see more days

I pray the Lord to guide my ways

With grace to love my enemy

For grace my Savior showed to me

With grace to love my enemy

For grace my Savior showed to me

My Muse lyrics - Owl City

I remember when I saw you at the movies

And to me, you were a stranger in the room

But to my surprise, I met your eyes

And that was when I knew

There's nowhere else I'd rather be than here with you

Yeah without a doubt, I took you out for coffee

We sat for hours at a table made for two

And this is what I meant, sweet one I spent the whole day talking to

There's nowhere else I'd rather be than here with you

I love the lightness in your laughter and the sparkle in your eyes

It doesn't matter if it rains or shines cuz I'll be by your side

You're the fire I admire and you'll always be my muse

There's nowhere else I'd rather be than here with you

It was all a blur, then there we were at the alter

You were mine and all my dreams were coming true

You know I meant it when I took your hand in mine and said "I do"

There's nowhere else I'd rather be than here with you

But how the time does fly and years go by, it's crazy

We both got sick and hurt and sad a time or two

But how I love you more and more, and after all that we've been through

There's nowhere else I'd rather be than here with you

I love the flowers in your footprints and the sparkle in your eyes

It doesn't matter if it rains or shines cuz I'll be by your side

For the record, you're my treasure and you'll always be my muse

There's nowhere else I'd rather be than here with you

I'm not one to worry much about the future

But because you're mine, I got everything to lose

So I'll say it now before we're at the door that someday we'll walk through

And if I'm the only one left in the room

There's nowhere else I'll rather be than home with you

I love the springtime in your spirit and the sparkle in your eyes

It doesn't matter if it rains or shines cuz I'll be by your side

I can say it, you're my favorite and you'll always be my muse

And I hope that in your heart you know it's true

There's nowhere else I'd rather be than here with you

Car Trouble lyrics - Owl City

Hey, so it's a really long story

But I've been drivin' all afternoon

(I-I-I-I-I've)

(Drivin', drivin', drivin', drivin')

I've been drivin' all afternoon

But I hate to say it, I won't be there soon

And though I'm late, you know I just can't wait

To come home to my slice of heaven on toast

But my Grand Prix broke down without fail

Another flat tire and another nail

I miss your smile but this could take a while

'Cause this "Road Closed" sign says there's no way around

No, first I felt kinda sad but I said out loud

"You know, this isn't so bad?"

Your photograph on my dash knows it's true

It might take me forever, but I can't wait to see you

I've been trudgin' since 2 AM

On the side of this highway, 'cause back there when

I patched that flat, I ran on fumes

And that was a bad move 'cause yeah, I ran out of gas

The heavens opened, the rain came down

Now I'm soaked to the bone, but I'm homeward bound

So I just don't care how much I have to bear

'Cause you'll be there when I walk in through the door

So down this road I will run and only stop to buy you

A bouquet for no reason

Hey, it's kinda crazy what daisies can do

It might take me forever, but I can't wait to see you

Well hey, I'd say that the real question is

Am I unavoidably detained

Or extremely fashionably late?

There ain't nothing ventured, nothing gained

It just really hasn't been my day

But, I'm on my way

Am I unavoidably detained

Or just unbelievably, insanely, fashionably late?

There ain't nothing ventured, nothing gained

It just really, truly, hasn't been my day

But I'm on my way

If I blew in by daybreak, I'd be in luck

I'd hand you a coffee right when you woke up

But my ETA just jumped to MIA

And I'm so lost, my mind is startin' to stray

Let's say I fly to Kathmandu

To show the whole world I got a lot to prove

But all I find is all these highways wind

And lead back to my slice of heaven on toast

Oh, would your heart kinda glow if I held your hand

And I promised to stay home?

Hey, when I blow in that's the first thing I'll do

It might take me forever

It might take me forever

But I love you forever, and I can't wait to see you

Yeah

Woo! Hey, I'd say that the real question is

Am I unavoidably detained

Or extremely fashionably late?

There ain't nothing ventured, nothing gained

It just really, truly, hasn't been my day

But, I'm on my way

Am I unavoidably detained

Or just unbelievably, insanely, fashionably late?

There ain't nothing ventured, nothing gained

It just really, truly, hasn't been my day

But, I'm on my way, yeah

I've been drivin' all afternoon

But I hate to say it, I won't be there soon

Boston lyrics - Owl City

(originally by Augustana)

In the light of the sun, is there anyone?

Oh, it has begun

Oh, dear, you look so lost

Your eyes are red when tears are shed

This world, you must have crossed, you said

"You don't know me, you don't even care"

Oh yeah, and you said

"You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains"

Oh yeah, that's what you said

Essential yet appealed

You carry all your thoughts across an open field

When flowers gaze at you

They're not the only ones

Who cry when they see you, you said

"You don't know me, you don't even care"

Oh yeah, well, you said

"You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains"

Oh yeah, she said

"I think I'll go to Boston, I think I'll start a new life

I think I'll start it over, where no one knows my name

I'll get out of California, I'm tired of the weather

I think I'll get a lover and fly 'em out to Spain"

Oh yeah, and I think I'll go to Boston, I think that I'm just tired

I think I need a new town to leave this all behind

I think I need a sunrise, I'm tired of a sunset

I hear it's nice in the summer, some snow would be nice, oh-yeah

You don't know me, and you don't even care

Oh yeah

Boston, where no one knows my name

Where no one knows my name

No one knows my name

Oh yeah

Boston

Where no one knows my name

Adam, Check Please (Up North Version) lyrics - Owl City

I said

Hey, I'm looking for Casey Connor

Here's my resume

I'm looking for a part-time job

And I can start today

Well, I heard you needed some help in frozen

With Eric leaving soon

My boss shook my hand

And I began

That Monday after school

That Monday after school

So thank you kindly

I owe ya, Hy-Vee

Eating cold pizza in the break room

Feeling kinda small

A skinny kid with a crooked tie

My name tag said it all

It said

"Adam, Frozen, 1 Years Of Service"

But I felt like the man

And I made it rain when payday came

'Cause that was all I had

So thank you kindly

I owe ya, Hy-Vee

Yeah I owe ya

Ooh, na da da da da da da

Yeah I'll be filling up the Cool Whip

Adam, check—Adam, check please

I'm on my way

I'm filling up the Cool Whip

Yeah, I promise I'm on the way

Now that friendly smile

In every aisle guaranteed

That your day was breezy

All those hours

And store-bought flowers

Set me free

And freedom meant the world to me

Hey, I'm looking for Casey Connor

It seems like yesterday

I paid my dues in frozen foods

And I just wanna say

God bless the helpful smile in every aisle

I couldn't ask for more

And I'm glad I got my first real job

Working in this grocery store

So thank you kindly

I owe ya, Hy-Vee

Yeah I owe ya

How you're feeling?

I'll be filling up the Cool Whip

Adam, check—Adam, check please

I'm on my way

I'm filling up the Cool Whip

Yeah, I promise I'm on the way

Now that friendly smile

In every aisle guaranteed

That your day was breezy

All those hours

And store-bought flowers

Set me free

And freedom meant the world to me

Under The Circus Lights (Live) lyrics - Owl City

How ya feeling? It's great to be here. Thanks! Here's a song about somebody who had an enchanting encounter inside of a big top tent. I've always had a thing for the idea of running away with the circus. I don't know why. I just know that I'd end up with extraordinary stories to tell. Here's one of them

Once upon a summer

A traveling circus came to town

From the land down under

And I was filled with wonder

When I saw the girl on the flying trapeze

Tear through the air with the greatest of ease

I got cotton candy

And then in a daze

I met her gaze

And she winked right at me

And my heart pounded madly

When I saw the girl on the flying trapeze

Capture the crowd with the greatest of ease

She was a light in a dark lullaby

That girl was raised by a butterfly

I swear when I caught her eye

I could almost fly

And under the circus lights

I must have fallen in love that night

Lighter than a feather

But careful, as with a heavy heart

She seemed to fall forever

And then I wondered whether

I noticed the girl on the flying trapeze

Blink back a tear with the greatest of ease

And she took my breath away

Oh so grand and graceful

Confetti rained as she climbed through the air

Like a homesick angel

"She makes heartache painful,"

I thought as the girl on the flying trapeze

Melted my heart with the greatest of ease

What a display of rosé poetry

What a majestic menagerie

I swear when I caught her eye

I could almost fly

And under the circus lights

I must have fallen in love that night

And then with a charming sweetness

She smiled and waved and took a bow

For a crowd stunned speechless

And I was charmed to pieces

When the girl on the flying trapeze

Magically dissolved like a song on the breeze

And simply broke my heart with the greatest of ease

We shook the floor with a roar of applause

She seemed to drown in the "ooh"s and "aah"s

I hung around 'til the clowns

Tore the big top down

And soon it was almost dawn

I looked and looked but the girl was gone

Deep down I felt kinda blue

For a day or two

Then clear as a bell, I knew

I would run away with the circus too

Thank you

Come back with a great story

Fiji Water lyrics - Owl City

Got an email at 22

Told me I could be a star

On a plane for the first time

I couldn't wait to start

Landed at JFK

Father Christmas picked me up

Checked in to a dream hotel

And I thought "There's no such thing as luck"

I walked in to my interview

And I thought "There's no such thing as luck"

And oh, if I only knew then what I know now

I'd stand like a one man band

And I'd say "All this is new to me, but here's how it's gonna be"

And I'd say "Hey, there is more to me than meets the eye

Let me be who I wanna be"

And I'd say "Hey, I'm an oddity and that's alright

Let me fly and follow my dreams"

And I'd say "Hey, thanks for the weekend

A good time was had by all"

And I'd say "Hey, thanks for the weekend

I ain't a smooth talker but thanks for the Fiji Water"

Thanks for the Fiji Water

Dinner under a palmtree

I had so much on my mind

Amazed by the bright lights

I stayed up half the night

And boy, I took a leap of faith

With nowhere else to go but up

I walked in to my interview

And I thought "There's no such thing as luck"

And oh, if I only knew then what I know now

I'd stand like a one man band

And I'd say "All this is new to me, but here's how it's gonna be

And I'd say "Hey, there is more to me than meets the eye

Let me be who I wanna be"

And I'd say "Hey, I'm an oddity and that's alright

Let me fly and follow my dreams"

And I'd say "Hey, thanks for the weekend

A good time was had by all"

And I'd say "Hey, thanks for the weekend

I ain't a spindoctor but thanks for the offer"

And "By the way, hey, thanks for the weekend"

(cause no one does it like you do)

"You know I had a ball"

(it was nice to meet you)

And I'd say "Hey, thanks for the weekend

I ain't a smooth talker but thanks for the Fiji Water"

Thanks for the Fiji Water

I laughed when I got back home and I thought

"There's no such thing as luck"

The 5th Of July lyrics - Owl City

My mum woke my dad up

And said "it's time to leave"

So they jumped in the old Caprice

And tore off into the night

On the 4th of July

They flew through the darkness

Driving like Jehu

And they rolled into Ottumwa

Before the sun begun to rise

On the 4th of July

And in walks Bob and Janice

Rachel's on her way

To peek in through the window

Hoping to hear her grandson cry

On the 4th of July

My mother watched the fireworks

From her hospital bed

And after it was all over

She held me for the first time

On the 5th of July

I've got my mother's brown eyes

And my dad's quiet way

And Grandma Rachel's love for music

The morning I arrived

On the 5th of July

Deeping in Iowa country

And a heavenly hideaway

On the shores of Lake Rathbun

My folks brought me home

On the 5th of July

That was when (that was when)

Life began (life began)

For me

That was when (that was when)

Life began (life began)

For me

A teacher and a mechanic

Brought me into this world

They loved me with all their hearts since

The day I opened my eyes

On the 5th of July

That was when (that was when)

Life began (life began)

For me

That was when (that was when)

Life began (life began)

For me

All My Friends lyrics - Owl City

It's been this way from the start

It's like they're always trying to tear us apart

But we will stand strong, stand true

And everybody's gonna watch what we do

And they'll be awestruck saying aw shucks

They either got real good or they got real good luck

And I'd be lying if I said that I could take any more

Cause I've been on my own, trying like never before

And I was lying on the couch and there's this knock on the door

And it's like

All my friends

Woah, come right in

Woah, all my friends

We can take it all back again

Woah, put your hands on in

And lemme hear you say

Oh yeah

Lemme hear you say yeah

Another day, another chance

We got our card and we're going to the dance

We're gonna stay strong, hold true

And everybody's gonna watch what we do

And they'll be awestruck, saying aw shucks

They either got real good or they got real good luck

And I'd be lying if I said that we could take any more

Cause we're about to light a fire like never before

And if you're lying on the couch and there's a knock on the door

It's like

All my friends

Woah, come right in

Woah, all my friends

We can take it all back again

Woah, put your hands on in

And lemme hear you say

Oh yeah

All my friends

Woah, come right in

Woah, all my friends

We can take it all back again

Woah, put your hands on in

And lemme hear you say

Oh yeah

Lemme hear you say yeah

We'll always be young at heart

And nothing's ever gonna tear us apart

Because we stand strong, stand true

And everybody's gonna watch what we do

And they'll be awestruck saying aw shucks

They either got real good or you know what

All my friends

Woah, come right in

Woah, all my friends

We can take it all back again

Woah, put your hands on in

And lemme hear you say

All my friends

Woah, come right in

Woah, all my friends

We can take it all back again

Woah, put your hands on in

And lemme hear you say

Oh yeah

Lemme hear you say yeah

House Wren lyrics - Owl City

I'm a house wren hunting for a house

I haven't found one, I'm on the lookout

For a home to call my own

A private residence

Through the grapevine I heard an empty gourd

Is hanging up somewhere on some old lady's porch

I'll pack my bags and off I'll go

To my new humble abode

I'm gonna sing

At the top of my lungs

'Cause it's a beautiful day

I'm gonna spread my wings

'Cause as far as I know

I am halfway home

I'm a house wren who needs a summer home

A country farm house or a quiet bungalow

Not too big, and not too small

First-rate real estate

I got my eyes peeled for a window box

An old tin can, a boot or a flower pot

I'll pack my bags and off I'll go

To my new humble abode

I'm gonna sing

At the top of my lungs

'Cause it's a beautiful day

I'm gonna spread my wings

'Cause as far as I know

I am half way home

I'm a house wren still hunting for a house

But I got a song and a lot to sing about

I'll pack my bags and off I'll go (off I'll go)

Because you know

I'm gonna sing

At the top of my lungs

'Cause it's a beautiful day

I'm gonna spread my wings

I'm on top of the world

And it's a beautiful thing

I'm gonna sing

At the top of my lungs

'Cause it's a beautiful day

I'm gonna spread my wings

'Cause as far as I know

I am half way home

I am half way home

Not All Heroes Wear Capes lyrics - Owl City

He doesn't fight crime or wear a cape

He doesn't read minds or levitate

But every time my world needs saving, he's my superman

Some folks don't believe in heroes 'cause they haven't met my dad

He loves his workshop and rock and roll

He's got a hot rod and a heart of gold

And you could say he's a man of few words, but he talks a lot within

And even though I'm a little taller, I still look up to him

He built me a house in the arms of a tree

He taught me to drive, and to fight, and to dream

When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see

That my dad's a hero to me

Rust-ridden fenders, and doors full of dings

Somehow he can fix about anything

I didn't think he knew how to cry till our dog died that year

He doesn't always say I love you, but I can hear him loud and clear

He built me a house in the arms of a tree

He taught me to drive, and to fight, and to dream

When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see

That my dad's a hero to me

He built me a house in the arms of a tree

He taught me to drive, and to fight, and to dream

When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see

That my dad's a hero to me

My dad's a hero to me

My dad's a hero to me

Montana lyrics - Owl City

A fifteen year old kid from Saint Paul

Hopped on a train and headed west

Got a job at a Saint Mary restaurant

Washing dishes and making friends

The years went by like the seasons

And they brought him a lifetime of joy

He bought ten or twelve acres of heaven

With a paradise vantage point

And he built a cabin at the foot of the mountains

That stole his heart when he was a boy

On North Fork Road you're almost home

Get lost in Montana

Where your heart can finally roam

Get lost in Montana

Where the mountains call you home

Get lost forever in Montana

His son worked hard in West Glacier

His daughter sold souvenirs

And he always went back to Polebridge

With his family every year

To his green tin roof in the Rockies

And his sky so full of stars

His spirit lives in these mountains

Where Montana first stole his heart

On North Fork Road you're almost home

Get lost in Montana

Where your heart can finally roam

Get lost in Montana

Where the mountains call you home

Get lost forever in Montana

Two words on a bumper sticker

Were all I needed to read

I found myself for the first time

When Montana enchanted me

So get lost in the Big Sky country

Where adventure calls your name

Every moment is worth more than diamonds

When you spend time in the treasure state

So get lost in the Big Sky country

And let your heart lead the way

Lucid Dream lyrics - Owl City

I am a light sleeper

But I am a heavy dreamer

My imagination gives me wings

And I can go anywhere

And when I wander away, to some other place

I'm suddenly there, way up in the air

Where passenger trains catch fire and fill the sky with flames

And that black rabbit of death

Wakes up in a breath, of beautiful dreams

My heartache it seems, so terribly vain

Where fire and diamonds fall like rain

Do you believe in endless miracles?

Do you believe in the impossible?

Do you believe sleep is a time machine?

Do you believe in curiosity?

Do you believe in what you cannot see?

Do you believe life is a Lucid Dream?

Well that's how you study the stars

That's how you study the stars

And that's how you know them by heart

Life is a Lucid Dream

Such is the path of a dreamer

I find my way by moonlight

My imagination gives me wings

And I can go anywhere

And when I wander away, to some other place

I'm suddenly there, way up in the air

Where passenger trains catch fire and fill the sky with flames

And that black rabbit of death

Wakes up in a breath, of beautiful dreams

My heartache it seems, so terribly vain

Where fire and diamonds fall like rain

Do you believe in endless miracles?

Do you believe in the impossible?

Do you believe sleep is a time machine?

Do you believe in curiosity?

Do you believe in what you cannot see?

Do you believe life is a Lucid Dream?

Well that's how you study the stars

That's how you study the stars

And that's how you know them by heart

Life is a Lucid Dream

Well that's how you study the stars

That's how you study the stars

And that's how you know them by heart

Life is a Lucid Dream

I am a light sleeper

But I am a heavy dreamer

Always lyrics - Owl City

When the road is long

And your strength is gone

Remember I am just a prayer away

When the way is hard

And you are faint of heart

Remember I am just a prayer away

Hold fast, I'll guide you through the night

And fear not for I am by your side

Listen through the rain

And you can hear the angels say

Help is on the way

The moment you begin to pray

When the thunders roar

You don't need to be afraid

I'll lead you through the storm

So please remember when I say

I'm with you always

When you are worn out

And you are let down

Remember I am just a prayer away

When every door is locked

And you feel so lost

Remember I am just a prayer away

Hold fast, I'll guide you through the night

And fear not for I am by your side

Listen through the rain

And you can hear the angels say

Help is on the way

The moment you begin to pray

When the thunders roar

You don't need to be afraid

I'll lead you through the storm

So please remember when I say

I'm with you always

Come and walk with me, yeah

Come and talk with me, yeah

Soar on eagles' wings

Run and I'll be there

Listen through the rain

And you can hear the angels say

Help is on the way

The moment you begin to pray

When the thunders roar

You don't need to be afraid

I'll lead you through the storm

So please remember when I say

I'm with you always

I'm with you always

Cloud Nine lyrics - Owl City

Pull the moon down with a lasso

Make your ceiling full of stars glow

I can sneak in through the window

And I could say it but we both know

You got me floatin' on cloud nine

Look up when the world gets you down

And you're gonna get by

Hang in when the world counts you out

And you're gonna be fine

Sometimes that's life, some days nothing ever goes right

But when your hand is in mine

You got me floatin' on cloud nine

Meet the one who makes your heart stop

Find a diamond in a gift shop

Live a little, love a whole lot

And you'll be shouting from the rooftop

You got me floatin' on cloud nine

Look up when the world gets you down

And you're gonna get by

Hang in when the world counts you out

And you're gonna be fine

Sometimes that's life, some days nothing ever goes right

But when your hand is in mine

You got me floatin' on cloud nine

Hey baby are we almost there yet?

And how much cooler could my life get?

Take my hand and take a deep breath

And we'll ride off into the sunset

Look up when the world gets you down

And you're gonna get by

Hang in when the world counts you out

And you're gonna be fine

Sometimes that's life, some days nothing ever goes right

But when your hand is in mine...

Look up when the world gets you down

And you're gonna get by

Hang in when the world counts you out

And you're gonna be fine

Sometimes that's life, some days nothing ever goes right

But if your hand is in mine

I'll be floatin' on cloud nine

For the rest of my life

I'll be floatin' on cloud nine

For the rest of my life

Winners Never Quit lyrics - Owl City

I've had some bummer days

But I ain't lookin' back

I've made a few mistakes

But I'm on the right track

I got somewhere to be

Gotta hurry so I'll make

My date with destiny

'Cause I don't wanna be late

Here we go

I might take my time

'Cause I find the fable had it right

Slow and steady wins the race

And I might lag behind

But I swear I'll cross the finish line

Movin' at a steady pace

I'll give it all I've got

I don't have a lot

But I know a little goes a long way

The truth is hard to face

But I can take a hit

I've lost in many ways

But a winner don't quit

My head is in the game

And the move is mine to make

But I am not afraid

'Cause I'll fight the good fight

I got somewhere to be

Gotta hurry so I'll make

My date with destiny

'Cause I don't wanna be late

Here we go

I might take my time

'Cause I find the fable had it right

Slow and steady wins the race

And I might lag behind

But I swear I'll cross the finish line

Movin' at a steady pace

I'll give it all I've got

I don't have a lot

But I know a little goes a long

I'll give it all I've got

I don't have a lot

But I know a little goes a long way

I got somewhere to be

Gotta hurry so I'll make

My date with destiny

'Cause I don't wanna be late

Madeline Island lyrics - Owl City

We bought a tent and some sleeping bags

And we jumped in the truck

North bound on I-35

Before the sun came up

We stopped for lunch in Kanow Park

Passing through the Louvre

Rolled into Bayfield, Wisconsin

And there she was

Madeline Island

We left our cares on the mainland

Boarded a ferry boat

We saw La Pointe for the first time

And we felt right at home

Drove out to Big Bay State Park

Picked out our campsite

We settled in underneath the stars

And there we were

Out there in the great Lake Superior

Right across the bay

We sat back, put our feet up and there we were

Half a world away

Where the waves turned the cliffs into sea caves

With every passing day

It was all a blur, but there we were

On Madeline Island

Madeline Island

We left our shadows on the lake shore

We soaked up all the sights

About drowned in a downpour

But for the northern lights

We shot the breeze under pine trees

And sat around the fire

We hit the hay beneath the Milky Way

And there we were

Out there in the great Lake Superior

Right across the bay

We sat back, put our feet up and there we were

Half a world away

Where the waves turned the cliffs into sea caves

With every passing day

It was all a blur, but there we were

On Madeline Island

Out there in the great Lake Superior

Right across the bay

We sat back, put our feet up and there we were

Half a world away

Where the waves turned the cliffs into sea caves

With every passing day

It was all a blur, but there we were

On Madeline Island

Madeline Island

There we were on Madeline Island

(We made a memory

That will always last

But we went on that trip

Just the three and back)

Be Brave lyrics - Owl City

In a basement of an empty house

I slept on the floor like a vagrant

I braved a Minnesota winter night

And drove to a movie feeling lonely

And as I thawed my heart out by the light

Of the silver screen

I was unaware that you were there In the dark

A silhouette was climbing up the stairs

And what I thought in the parking lot

Was like I just wanna know your name

I drove away with not much to say

But in my hand I held the paper bird

And written on it were the words

"Be brave"

Wildflower knew I wasn't well

But on the kitchen floor I got better again

I grabbed my keys and drove toward a star

And there I was understood for the first time in my life

Cause that's when I was introduced to true serendipity

I knew it when you showed up again

In the snow yeah I was always told

Your heart is where you're home

And what I thought in the coffee shop

Was like the last eight hours was a dream

I drove away with not much to say

But in my hand I held a paper bird

And written on it were the words

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

"OK, I'll be brave"

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh

"OK, I'll be brave"

And in my mind

After all this time I think

"Ain't life beautiful and strange?"

I'm blown away

With no words to say

Cause I'll forever be amazed

How I learned the meaning of the phrase

"Be brave"

"Be brave"

"Be brave"

"Be brave"

New York City lyrics - Owl City

I'm digging through the glove box

I thought I had a map in here

The driver's door doesn't lock

I bought the car my junior year

There's candy in my backpack

And you can pick our soundtrack

We're heading for the East Coast tonight

So pack your bags and hold on tight

Cuz we're taking off

We're taking off

Run away with me

We're on the way to New York City

Take my hand and see

Manhattan never looked so pretty

Travel light and see the world right

You'll never know if you never go so

Run away with me

And say hello to New York City

Feet up on the dashboard

We're driving with the windows down

Did you forget your phone cord?

We'll buy one in the next small town

Get dinner at an IHOP

A shower at a truck stop

We'll listen to some Johnny Cash

Take my hand and don't look back

Cuz we're movin' on

(Da-da-da-da-da-da-da)

We're movin' on

(Da-da-da-da-da-da-da)

Run away with me

We're on the way to New York City

Take my hand and see

Manhattan never looked so pretty

Travel light and see the world right

You'll never know if you never go so

Run away with me

And say hello to New York City

Run away

Run away

Run away

Run away

Run away with me

We're on the way to New York City

Take my hand and see

Manhattan never looked so pretty

Travel light and see the world right

You'll never know if you never go so

Run away with me

Stroll the midtown streets

And tell me that you don't feel giddy

Lady Liberty

Ain't throwing us a wink or is she

Travel light and see the world right

You'll never know if you never go so

Run away with me

And say hello to New York City

(Da-da-da-da-da-da-da)

Say hello to New York City

(Da-da-da-da-da-da-da)

Say hello to New York City

Firebird lyrics - Owl City

We used to talk all night and not say a word

When I would hop into your red Firebird

And, man alive, we would drive just to drive around town

'Cause in your car we understood and figured out

That everything changes

Everything changes

Tell me why I look back and I wanna cry

Sometimes I feel like we grew up too fast

You and I had the time of our younger lives

Sometimes I sigh and think about the past

But it's alright, cause everything changes

A basement full of boys building homemade bombs

AJ cut his finger and said "go get your mom"

I saw it all through the windshield of my white truck, Troy

Lotsa ups, lotsa downs, lots of growing up

'Cause everything changes

Everything changes

Tell me why I look back and I wanna cry

Sometimes I feel like we grew up too fast

You and I had the time of our younger lives

Sometimes I sigh and think about the past

But it's alright, cause everything changes

Hey Billy, remember when

It was just us (it was just us)

Pretending we were Nash and Coral

On the school bus (on the school bus)

I wouldn't change a thing, 'cause everything changes (changes...)

Life is different now and that's okay with me

I moved away and you started a family

But deep inside you and I are still the same kids

'Cause you're my brother and that won't ever change

Even though everything changes

Tell me why I look back and I wanna cry

Sometimes I feel like we grew up too fast

You and I had the time of our younger lives

Sometimes I sigh and think about the past

But it's alright, yeah it's alright

There's a new guest room in my parents' home

The carpet got replaced a couple years ago

Because it isn't my bedroom anymore

There's new photographs on the freezer door

But it's alright, 'cause everything changes

(Everything changes)

We should talk all night and not say a word

('Cause everything changes)

Let me hop into your red Firebird again

Go, play!

Your life is a matinee

In a galaxy far, far away

And your debut is a sold out show, yeah

It's a blockbuster movie and you play the lead role

And right out at the opening scenes

The whole crowd's on the edge of their seats

Your worse critics are sitting up front

And they're giving you two thumbs way, way up

You'll be in a league of your own

You'll be stealing their hearts taking Oscars home

So go get 'em and give it some passion

Quiet on the set

Lights, camera, action!

With all your heart and soul

Dream big and you can feel the magic

Let the camera roll

Woah, your charm is automatic

Make your cameo

Be yourself

And don't be so dramatic

Go and steal the show

Woah, 'cause life is cinematic

Go and steal the show

Woah, 'cause life is cinematic

Go, play!

Plot twist, it's a trilogy

Cause your life is a thriller

We're dying to see

Your debut is a sold out show, yeah

It's an epic adventure

And you play the hero

And right out at the opening scenes

The whole crowd's on the edge of their seats

Your worse critics are sitting up front

And they're giving you two thumbs way, way up

You'll be in a league of your own

You'll be stealing their hearts taking Oscars home

So go get 'em and give it some passion

Quiet on the set

Lights, camera, action!

With all your heart and soul

Dream big, and you can feel the magic

Let the camera roll

Woah, your charm is automatic

Make your cameo

Be yourself, and don't be so dramatic

Go and steal the show

Woah, cause life is cinematic

Get a top hat and a rabbit

With the crowd and make your magic

Turn the lights down low

(And your dreams will come true)

(May the force be with you)

Knock 'em dead

Go and steal the show

Woah, cause life is cinematic

(Go play!)

'Cause your life is a movie

(Go play!)

Follow your dreams, cause your life is a movie

(Go play!)

Go get 'em and give it your all

Follow your dreams, cause life is cinematic

All My Friends (Alt Version) lyrics - Owl City

It's been this way from the start

It's like they're always trying to tear us apart

But we will stand strong, stand true

And everybody's gonna watch what we do

And they'll be awestruck saying aw shucks

They either got real good or they got real good luck

And I'd be lying if I said that I could take any more

Cause I've been on my own, trying like never before

And I was lying on the couch and there's this knock on the door

And it's like

All my friends

Woah, come right in

Woah, all my friends

We can take it all back again

Woah, put your hands on in

And lemme hear you say, oh...

[x2]

Another day, another chance

We got our card and we're going to the dance

We're gonna stay strong, hold true

And everybody's gonna watch what we do

And they'll be awestruck, saying aw shucks

They either got real good or they got real good luck

And I'd be lying if I said that we could take any more

Cause we're about to light a fire like never before

And if you're lying on the couch and there's a knock on the door

It's like...

All my friends

Woah, come right in

Woah, all my friends

We can take it all back again

Woah, put your hands on in

And lemme hear you say, oh...

We'll always be young at heart

And nothing's ever gonna tear us apart

Because we stand strong and stand true

And everybody's gonna watch what we do

And they'll be awestruck saying aw shucks

They either got real good or you know what

All my friends

Woah, come right in

Woah, all my friends

We can take it all back again

Woah, put your hands on in

And lemme hear you say, oh...

[x2]

Lemme hear you say...

We're gonna stay strong, stand true...

Montana (Alt Version) lyrics - Owl City

A fifteen year old kid from St. Paul

Hopped on a train and headed west

Got a job at a St. Mary Restaurant

Washing dishes and making friends

The years went by like the seasons

And they brought him a lifetime of joy

He bought ten or twelve acres of heaven

And a paradise vantage point

And he built a cabin at the foot of the mountains

That stole his heart when he was a boy

On North Fork Road you're almost home

Get lost in Montana

Where your heart can finally roam

Get lost in Montana

Where the mountains call you home

Get lost forever...

His son worked hard in West Glacier

His daughter sold souvenirs

And he always went back to Polebridge

With his family every year

To his green tin roof in the Rockies

And his sky so full of stars

His spirit lives in these mountains

Get lost in Montana

Where your heart can finally roam

Get lost in Montana

Where the mountains call you home

Get lost forever...

Where adventure calls your name

Every moment is worth more than diamonds

When you spend time in the treasure state

So get lost in the Big Sky country

Get lost in Montana

Where your heart can finally roam

Get lost in Montana

Where the mountains call you home

Get lost forever...

Firebird (Alt Version) lyrics - Owl City

We used to talk all night and not say a word

When I would hop into your red Firebird

And, man alive, we would drive just to drive around town

'Cause in your car we understood and figured out

That everything changes

Everything changes

Tell me why I look back and I wanna cry

Sometimes I feel like we grew up too fast

You and I had the time of our younger lives

Sometimes I sigh and think about the past

But it's alright, cause everything changes

A basement full of boys building homemade bombs

AJ cut his finger and said "go get your mom"

I saw it all through the windshield of my white truck, Troy

Lotsa ups, lotsa downs, lots of growing up

'Cause everything changes

Everything changes

Tell me why I look back and I wanna cry

Sometimes I feel like we grew up too fast

You and I had the time of our younger lives

Sometimes I sigh and think about the past

But it's alright, cause everything changes

Hey Billy, remember when

It was just us

Pretending we were Nash and Coral

On the school bus

I wouldn't change a thing, 'cause everything changes

I wouldn't change a thing, 'cause everything changes

Life is different now and that's okay with me

I moved away and you started a family

But deep inside you and I are still the same kids

'Cause you're my brother and that won't ever change

Even though everything changes

Tell me why I look back and I wanna cry

Sometimes I feel like we grew up too fast

You and I had the time of our younger lives

Sometimes I sigh and think about the past

But it's alright (everything changes)

Because it isn't my bedroom anymore

There's new photographs on the freezer door

Verge lyrics - Owl City (feat. Aloe Blacc)

I ain't too sure what I believe in

But I believe in what I see

And when I close my eyes

I see my whole life ahead of me

These are our hours (These are our hours)

This is our time (This is our time)

This is our time

These are our hours (These are our hours)

Out on the verge (Out on the verge)

Out on the verge of the rest of our lives (The rest of our lives)

Out on the verge of the rest of our lives tonight

Top of the world and we're dressed to the nines tonight

Edge of the earth and we're touching the sky tonight

Out on the verge of the rest of our lives

These are our hours (These are our hours)

This is our time (This is our time)

These are our hours (These are our hours)

Out on the verge

Out on the verge

Out on the verge of the rest of our lives

Out on the verge of the rest of our lives tonight

Top of the world and we're dressed to the nines tonight

Edge of the earth and we're touching the sky tonight

Out on the verge of the rest of our lives

(For the rest of our lives)

From now on

There's no looking back

Full steam ahead

On this one-way track

From this day forward

I will make a promise

To be true to myself

And always be honest

For the rest of my life

I will do what's right

I will do what's right

When I step...

Out on the verge of the rest of our lives tonight

Top of the world and we're dressed to the nines tonight

Edge of the earth and we're touching the sky tonight

Out on the verge of the rest of our lives (The rest of our lives)

The rest of our lives

Edge of the earth and we're touching the sky tonight

Out on the verge of the rest of our lives

I Found Love lyrics - Owl City

I was so young and reckless

It was all a blur but there you were

And your love left me breathless

When the fairy dust fell over us

Yeah I, I felt like I could fly

Cause I, I found love

So take my hand, and shed a tear

Before I'm gone, it's now or never

I'll hold you close, the end is near

But love goes on, and on forever

It's so dark in my mind

I cross my heart and hope to die

I'm so bad, at goodbyes

I hold my breath, and close my eyes

I don't have a lot left

Oh, how did it end so fast?

I say, with my last breath

It's a perfect day, to float away

When the sparks, flew between us

I saw you glow, and had to know

Where our journey would lead us

Til' the story end, and back again

Yeah I, I felt like I could fly

Cause I, I found love

So lead me home, and lift me up

Above the stars, and even higher

I'm not afraid, because your love

It falls like rain, and burns like fire

It's so dark in my mind

I cross my heart and hope to die

I'm so bad, at goodbyes

I hold my breath, and close my eyes

I don't have a lot left

Oh, how did it end so fast?

I say, with my last breath

It's a perfect day, to float away

I'll love you forever

And you were my dream come true

I say, with my last breath

It's a perfect day, to float away

Yeah I, I felt like I could fly

Cause I, I found love

Thunderstruck lyrics - Owl City (feat. Sarah Russell)

[Owl City:]

I feel you glowing in the dark

When I collapse into your arms

I'm just a stranger in the stars

[Sarah Russell:]

Cause somehow it seems when I am with you

That all of my dreams begin to come true

And carefully you carry me away

[Owl City:]

I've never felt so wide awake

Cause I'm wonder struck

I love how you take my breath away

I'm thunderstruck

To tell you the truth, I'm so afraid

(I'm so afraid)

That I'm out of luck

I love how you take my breath away

(Take my breath away)

I'm thunderstruck

[Owl City:]

I chase the phantoms down the hall

I felt the floorboards rise and fall

I lost and never loved at all

[Sarah Russell:]

Cause I'm in a daze and you're in my dreams

The orchestra plays the prettiest things

And carefully you carry me away

[Owl City:]

I've never felt so wide awake

Cause I'm wonder struck

I love how you take my breath away

(Take my breath away)

I'm thunderstruck

To tell you the truth, I'm so afraid

(I'm so afraid)

That I'm out of luck

I love how you take my breath away

(Take my breath away)

I'm thunderstruck

[Owl City (Sarah Russell):]

Woah, I'm leaving the world behind

(And all my dreams,

All of my dreams are shared now)

Woah, I'm over the moon tonight

(And all my dreams,

All of my dreams are shared now)

Cause somehow it seems (when I am with you)

That all of my dreams (begin to come true)

And carefully you carry me away

[Sarah Russell (Owl City):]

You take my breath away

(Away)

When I'm with you

(I'm with you)

And all my dreams,

All of my dreams are shared now

(When I look at you)

All of my dreams are shared now

(When I look at you)

My Everything lyrics - Owl City

When my hope is lost

And my strength is gone

I run to you and you alone

When I can't get up and I can't go on

I run to you and you alone

'Cause you're my light in the dark

And I sing with all of my heart

Hallelujah

My almighty God divine

Hallelujah

I am yours and you are mine

This is all I know how to say

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

You're my everything

When I'm plagued with pain

And filled with fear

I run to you and you alone

When my days are few

And death is near

I run to you and you alone

'Cause you're my light in the dark

And I sing with all of my heart

Hallelujah

My almighty God divine

Hallelujah

I am yours and you are mine

This is all I know how to say

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

When trouble comes and goes

And when the cold wind blows

I lift my hands up, I lift my hands up

When sorrow knocks me down

And you pick me off the ground

I lift my hands up, I lift my hands up

And I sing

Hallelujah

My almighty God divine

Hallelujah

I am yours and you are mine

This is all I know how to say

Hallelujah

By the grace of God above

Hallelujah

I'll shine a light 'cause I am loved

This is all I know I will say

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

This is all I know how to say

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

You're my everything

Ohh Ohh, You're my everything
