A Silver Song
Conspiracy Of Owls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wanna lift you up
I wanna dress you up
Let's be friends
Hurry up! Hurry up!
I've got a silver song
Want you to sing along
Let's pretend
And we're in love again
You climb down the staircase
With your lovely face on
You put a taste in me
You put me in a spell
I must be in the right space
High upon a mystic dream
The love we have is so serene yeah we wear it well
You open your heart and I drift right through
Like the moon,
Come from behind the clouds
Shining down upon the world
Like the moon,
Come from behind the clouds
Shining down upon the world
You open your heart and I drift right through
Look at you now
You're all grown up inside
You've got a careful eye
You see right through me
With a steady hand
We can slow the turning tide
Rock away the idle night
Rocket a moonbeam
Project it in the sky
Celestial in its dream
Like the moon,
Come from behind the clouds
Shining down upon the world
Like the moon,
Come from behind the clouds
Shining down upon the world
You open your heart and I drift right through
