The world was grey
until I saw the colors burst from your eyes
And day by day
the world became a canvas by your side
I lost my way
the day I put my head into the sand
And washed away
I woke up in some mysterious land
I wanna try
Learning to fly
Does it feel fine for you,
Living a lie?
How can it be?
Do eyes really see?
The shadow's not you,
you're alive if you want to be
Don't be surprised
A turn in the road's a subtle exercise
And in the dark
We'll see the sunrise on top of your bedroom tonight
Some heaven in
those clouds away, some place I'll never know
Sinks in the sea,
Beneath the trees
Sink, into me too.
I wanna try
Learning to fly
Does it feel fine for you,
Living a lie?
How can it be?
Do eyes really see?
The shadow's not you,
you're alive if you want to be
The world was grey
Until I
saw the colors burst from your eyes
