The Sifters

sound is a wave like a wave on the ocean

moon plays the wave like a violin, pushing and pulling

from shore to shore, biggest melody you never heard before, no

what if i were the night sky? if i were the night sky

it's my lullaby to leave by

what if we hadn't been born at the same time

what if you were 75 and were 9?

would i still visit you?

bring you cookies in an old folks' home

would you be there alone?

when the late summer (?) fires off in your arms

will i remember to breathe? no, i never will.

in a fire i could convince you that i mean you no harm

just wanna show you i'm not too mean

if i were the the night sky and if i were the night sky

heres my lullaby

my lullaby to leave by

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 were 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

pushing and pulling from shore to shore

biggest melody you've never heard before

what if i were the night sky? i were the night sky

here's my lullaby to leave my

my lullaby to leave by

lullaby to leave by

if i were the night sky
