Once upon a time...
I was rattling around
Like a songbird that you prized
But it never made a sound
Someone told me not to come
They told me not to look
But you know I never take advice
And one time is all it took
I thought hey, I'd treat you like an aeroplane
I'd feed you clouds and vapor trails
We¡¯d go for walks on Everest
We would sleep underneath the watchful eye of the crescent moon.
It might seem ludicrous
I know it sounds cliche'
But when she walks into the room
She brings a brighter day
Can't help but watch her every move
While I pretend to look away
Smitten, bound and gagged
But if I got the chance I'd say
I'd say hey, I'll treat you like an aeroplane
Ill catch you like a falling star
I'll be your hero astronaut
And wel¡¯l sleep underneath the waterfall of the Milky Way
But if I wait a little while
I might find the nerve to find the words to say to her
I find the timing's right to wait a little while
A little while
Perfect is a number
That you're not allowed to say
So when she put me on the spot
I quickly coined a phrase
I said hey, I'll treat you like an aeroplane
I'll feed you clouds and vapor trails
We¡¯l go for walks on Everest
And we¡¯ll sleep underneath the waterfall
Yeah, we¡¯ll sleep underneath the watchful eye of the crescent moon.
