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

Wed 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 well 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

Wel go for walks on Everest

And well sleep underneath the waterfall

Yeah, well sleep underneath the watchful eye of the crescent moon.
