Anime Eyes
Blip Blip Bleep Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Widescreen in my sight
With your midnight hair
Your moonlight skin
Dancing to the music in this place
Keeping me honest
Driving me crazy
Making me happy
Spread like a rainbow in the stormy skies
I love the twilight in your anime eyes
Rhythm inside my arms
My heart inches from yours
The sound surround
The speakers ring
We're in love
The beats are going insane
Keeping me honest
Driving me crazy
Making me nervous
Making me happy
Spread like a rainbow in the stormy skies
I love the twilight in your anime eyes
Just like the ocean under moonlit skies
I love the twilight in your anime eyes
The band is through
The music done
So we leave and hit the street
The cabs won't stop
So we just walk
Hand in hand down rainy Second Avenue
Keeping me honest
Driving me crazy
Making me nervous
Making me happy
Spread like a rainbow under stormy skies
I love the twilight in your anime eyes
Just like the ocean under moonlit skies
I love the twilight in your anime eyes
Come, come, come a little closer
Come, come, come a little closer
Come, come, come a little closer
Come, come, come a little closer
Here is to
The times where we would drink until we'd dance
Here's to the times where we would smile till we laugh
Here's to the times where we would drink till we dance
Here's to the times where we would smile till we laugh
Spread like a rainbow in the stormy skies
I love the twilight in your anime eyes
Just like the ocean under moonlit skies
