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.
What if I were the night sky?
What if I were the night sky?
It's my lullaby; My lullaby to leave by
Lullaby to leave by.
If I were the night
What if we hadn't been born at the same time
What if you were 75 and I were 9?
Would I come visit you?
Bring you cookies in an old folks' home
Would you be there alone?
When the late summer lightning fires off in your arms
Will I remember to breathe? No, I never will.
If I could convince you that I mean you no harm
Just wanna show you how not to need
If i were the the night sky and if i were the night sky
Heres my lullaby
My lullaby to leave by
If i were the night
What if we hadn't been each other at the same time
Would you tell me all the stories from when you're young and in your prime
Would I rock you to sleep
Would you tell me all the secrets you don't need to keep
Would I still miss you
Oh, would you then have been mine?
Sound is a wave like a wave on the ocean
Moon plays the ocean like a violin
