Splash down in the silver screen
Into a deep dramatic scene
I swim through the theater
Or maybe I'm just a dreamer
Like a kite in the bright midday
Wonder stole my breath away
Shy sonata for Mercury
The stars always sing so pretty

This picnic will soon depart
Real life, I'm sad to see you go
I'll miss you with all my heart
But I'd rather be alone
'Cause I couldn't live without
Sunsets that dazzle in the dusk
So I'll drag the anchor up
And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust

Dreams don't turn to dust

I made for the countryside
And my eyes never grew so wide
Apple raspberry river blue
I don't wanna leave without you
In the sound I gladly drowned
Into the emerald underground
I rub my eyes 'cause it's hard to see
Surrounded by all this beauty

It's like dying to live, squinting to see
All of that distant thunder that never made sense to me
As every pearl turns muddy to rust
I'll feather the breeze 'cause dreams don't turn to dust

Call back the cap-com
Tick off the time-bomb
Let felicity fly
Armour the airlock
Blanket the bedrock
And kiss the planet goodbye

Dear God, I was terribly lost
When the galaxies crossed
And the sun went dark
But dear God, you're the only North Star
I would follow this far

Fight back the flight deck
Bring on the breakneck
Cue the solar eclipse (sun went dark)
Summit the sunset
Dubtail the dragnet
And blow your backbone to bits

Dear God, I was terribly lost
When the galaxies crossed
And the sun went dark
But dear God, you're the only North Star
I would follow this far

Oh telescope, keep an eye on my only hope
Lest I blink and be swept off the narrow road
Hercules, you've got nothing to say to me
'Cause you're not the blinding light that I need
For He is the saving grace of the galaxies

He is the saving grace of the galaxies

Dear God, I was terribly lost
When the galaxies crossed
And the sun went dark
But dear God, you're the only North Star
I would follow this far

(I would follow this far)

Through the galaxies
Through the galaxies

[Chorus]
Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the alligator sky
Even though, I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go

[Verse 1: Shawn Chrystopher]
Uh uh, that's not a plane, that's me
I'm sittin' where I'm supposed to
Floatin' on the cloud, can't nobody come close to
The concrete and the sky switch places
So now my ceiling is painted with cosmic spaces
Firecracker to the moon, keep your eyes shut
Blastin' off like a rocket from the ground up
Heh, I used to catch a cab on the Monday
Now the taxi's sellin' lights on the runway, fly
Condo on the milky way
A house on the cloud and God's my landlord
And for my rent all I pay is my drive
Got that so if you need me you can find me in the alligator sky

[Chorus]
Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the alligator sky
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go

[Bridge: Adam Young]
Roller coaster through the atmosphere
I'm drowning in this starry serenade
Where ecstasy becomes cavalier
My imagination's taking me away
Reverie whispered in my ear
I'm scared to death that I'll never be afraid
Roller coaster through the atmosphere
My imagination's taking me away

[Verse 2: Shawn Chrystopher]
Uh, now I'ma dance like I never dance
Sing like I never sing, dream like I've never dreamed
Or try to, 'cause we've been lied to
That the sun is somethin' that we can't fly to
Well, I sit on my star and see street lights
Look up, ha, you'll miss me if you blink twice
Ha ha, imagination is hot and if you got it you can meet me
When you see me in the alligator sky

[Chorus]
Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the alligator sky?
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go

Where was I when the rockets came to life
And carried you away into the alligator sky?
Even though I'll never know what's up ahead
I'm never lettin' go, I'm never lettin' go
In the alligator sky...

Symphony of silver tears
Sing to me and sooth the ring in my ears
Overcast these gloomy nights wear on
But I'm holding fast because it's darkest just before the dawn

I sang my princess fast asleep
'Cause she was my dream come true
Oh Annmarie, believe me, I loved you

But now those lonely lullabies
Just dampen my tired eyes
Because I can't forget you…
Because I can't forget you

I'll dissolve when the rain pours in
When the nightmares take me
I will scream with the howling wind
'Cause it's a bitter world and I'd rather dream…

Dizzy love turned a star lily pink
And hung above our lids too flushed to blink
But icy blue froze the fairytale cold
Though I treasured you and you sparkled with someone to hold

I sang my princess fast asleep
'Cause she was my dream come true
Oh Annmarie, believe me, I loved you

But now those lonely lullabies
Just dampen my tired eyes
Because I can't forget you
Because I can't forget you

I'll dissolve when the rain pours in
When the nightmares take me
I will scream with the howling wind
'Cause it's a bitter world and I'd rather dream

I'll dissolve when the rain pours in
When the nightmares take me
I will scream with the howling wind
'Cause it's a bitter world and I'd rather dream

And I'd rather dream

Annmarie, I'll never forget you
Annmarie, I'll never forget you
Annmarie, remember me?
I'll never forget you
Annmarie, remember me?
I'll never forget you
Annmarie, remember me?
I'll never forget you
