Take It All Away lyrics - Owl City

There was a shot in the dark, I was caught by surprise

There was a hole in my heart, there were tears in your eyes

And there was nothing to say 'cause you made up your mind

So I guess what you meant when you left was goodbye

So if you're gonna go and leave me in a lonely grave

I won't let it show until you've finally flown away

You gotta know that you tear me up when you say

You wanna take it all away, take it all away

You tear me up when you say

You wanna take it all away, take it all away

You were the one and it was enough

To be the one you were dreaming of

You were the one and we called it love

And now you take it all away, take it all away

I felt a pain in my chest with your kiss on my cheek

And as I try to digest the words I couldn't believe

I'm left with nothing to say with my heart on my sleeve

Making it easy to hurt and even harder to breathe

So if you're gonna go and leave me in a lonely grave

I won't let it show until you've finally flown away

You gotta know that you tear me up when you say

You wanna take it all away, take it all away

You tear me up when you say

You wanna take it all away, take it all away

You were the one and it was enough

To be the one you were dreaming of

You were the one and we called it love

And now you take it all away, take it all away

You take it all away, you take it all away, you take it all away

You gotta know that you tear me up when you say

You wanna take it all away, take it all away

You tear me up when you say

You wanna take it all away, take it all away

You were the one and it was enough

To be the one you were dreaming of

You were the one and we called it love

And now you take it all away, take it all away.

The Real World lyrics - Owl City

I saw the autumn leaves peel up off the street,

take wing on the balmy breeze and sweep you off your feet. 

You blushed as they scooped you up on sugar maple wings,

to gaze down on the city below, ablaze with wondrous things.

Downy feathers kiss your face and flutter everywhere.

Reality is a lovely place but I wouldn’t want to live there.

I wouldn’t wanna live there!

Weighed down by heavy lids and lunar lullabies,

I knew you were wide awake because you smile with your eyes.

Downy feathers kiss your face and flutter everywhere.

Reality is a lovely place but I wouldn’t want to live there.

From the green belt balcony, the wildfires look so pretty.

Ponderosa canopy, I’d never leave if it were up to me.

To the ruby redwood tree, and to the velvet climbing ivy:

painted all mahogany, I’d never leave if it were up to me.

..If it were up to me..

With a starry brush, paint the dusk venetian blue,

because in the evening hush, you’ll never believe the view.

And when the leaves return and their whisperings fill the night,

they’ll freeze and burn where fire and ice collide.

Can you feel a silk embrace in the satin air?

If we dissolve without a trace, will the real world even care?

Downy feathers kiss your face and flutter everywhere.

Reality is a lovely place but I wouldn’t want to live there.

I wouldn’t want to live there!

I saw the autumn leaves peel up off the street,

take wing on the balmy breeze and sweep you off your feet.

Deer In The Headlights lyrics - Owl City

Met a girl in the parking lot,

And all I did was say hello.

Her pepper spray made it rather hard

For me to walk her home,

But I guess that's the way it goes.

Tell me again was it love at first sight

When I walked by and you caught my eye.

Didn't you know love could shine this bright?

Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights.

Met a girl with a graceful charm,

But when beauty met the beast he froze.

Got the sense I was not her type

By black eye and bloody nose,

But I guess that's the way it goes.

Tell me again was it love at first sight

When I walked by and you caught my eye.

Didn't you know love could shine this bright?

Well smile because you're the deer in the headlights.

It's suffocating to say,

But the female mystique takes my breath away.

So give me a smile or give me a sneer,

'Cause I'm trying to guess here.

Tell me again was it love at first sight

When I walked by and you caught my eye.

Didn't you know love could shine this bright?

I'm sorry I ever tried, deer in the headlights.

Tell me again was it love at first sight

When I walked by and you caught my eye.

Didn't you know love could shine this bright?

If life was a game, you would never play nice.

If love was a beam, you'd be blind in both eyes.

Put your sunglasses on 'cause you're a deer in the headlights.

You're the deer in the headlights.

You're the deer in the headlights.

Angels lyrics - Owl City

vWake me if you're out there

Through the glass in my bedroom window

In the bushes far below

I thought I saw an unfamiliar shadow

Among the ones I so clearly know

I was sleeping with the night light unplugged

With a note on the rocking chair

That says, "I've been dreaming of the life I once loved,

So wake me if you're out there."

Living close to the ground

Is seventh Heaven cuz there are angels all around

Among my frivolous thoughts

I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts

Wake me if you're out there

Wake me if you're out there

In the dust on my cellar staircase

A pair of footprints followed me

I saw a flicker in the fake fireplace

Blinked again but there was nothing to see

I've been leaving all the windows unlocked

With a basket by the oak tree

Cuz I'll be pickin' up the acorns that fall off

If you'll be climbing up to meet me

Living close to the ground

Is seventh Heaven cuz there are angels all around

Among my frivolous thoughts

I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts

Wake me if you're out there

I keep my knees black and blue

Because they often hit the hard wood floor

(Wake me if you're out there)

And I believe so

I'm not praying to the ceiling anymore

I was sleeping with the night light unplugged

With a note on the rocking chair

That says, "I've been dreaming of the life I once loved,

So wake me if you're out there."

Living close to the ground

Is seventh Heaven cuz there are angels all around

Among my frivolous thoughts

I believe there are beautiful things seen by the astronauts

The indications revealed

(Wake me if you're out there)

That few of us realize life is quite surreal

So if you're dying to see

I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity

So if you're dying to see

I guarantee there are angels around your vicinity

Dreams Don't Turn To Dust lyrics - Owl City

[Verse 1]

Splash down in the silver screen

Into a deep dramatic scene

I swim through the theater

Or maybe I'm just a dreamer

Like a kite in the bright midday

Wonder stole my breath away

Shy sonata for Mercury

The stars always sing so pretty

[Chorus:]

This picnic will soon depart

Real life, I'm sad to see you go

I'll miss you with all my heart

But I'd rather be alone

'Cause I couldn't live without

Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk

So I'll drag the anchor up

And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust

Dreams don't turn to dust!

[Verse 2]

I made for the countryside

And my eyes never grew so wide

Apple raspberry river blue

I don't wanna leave without you

In the sound I gladly drowned

Into the emerald underground

I rub my eyes 'cause it's hard to see

Surrounded by all this beauty

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]

(I'm sad to see you go)

(But I'd rather be alone)

When tiger eyes begin making you blush

And when diamonds boast that they can't be crushed

Let 'em go, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust

[Chorus]

Dreams don't turn to dust!

Dreams don't turn to dust!

And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust!

Honey And The Bee lyrics - Owl City (feat. Breanne Düren)

Don't remind me

That some days I'm a windshield

And other days I'm just a lucky bug

As cold iron rails leave

Old mossy trails through the countryside

The crow and the bean field

Are 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)

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

So 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

Until you suddenly bloomed

Then 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?)

And if I reached for your hand

For the rest of my life

(Who knew the other side could be so green?)
