Owl City

Owl City - The real world lyrics

Your rating:

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 want to live there

Weighed down by heavy lids and lunar lullabies 
I knew you were wide awake
'Cause 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 
'Cause 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
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
