Sailboats wish that they were stars,
|
Floating softly in the sky
|
Among our dreams that pay goodbye
|
|
Moving through transparent space,
|
Drifting through the stratosphere
|
And onward 'till they disappear
|
|
These continents from overhead
|
Look like tiny paper shapes
|
Intricately set in place
|
|
Below the misty mountain clouds
|
Theres a lovely silver bay
|
Where sunset sailors often hideaway
|
|
Scuba diver in the lock,
|
Speedboat driver on the dock
|
Sailplane pilot in the blue take me up there with you
|
The world looks brighter from this high altitude
|
|
I was walking through the trees (Sailboats wish they were stars)
|
And I was swimming through the sea (Cause they don't know who they are)
|
I was falling through the air
|
When it hit me right there...
|
My eyes are tired; I don't even care
|
|
An airplane carried me to bed,
|
Where i slept above the coast
|
And dreamt I had become a ghost
|
|
I sail above the frozen peaks,
|
Deep in cold cathedral caves
|
Across the hills and far beyond the waves
|
|
Take the car on the lawn
|
Fly the jet to the sun
|
And bring the spacecraft
|
'n soon while I play chess with the moon
|
I feel like sleeping through this cold afternoon
|
|
Once in 1964 (Sailboats wish they were stars)
|
An actress ran on the shore (Cause they don't know who they are)
|
|
And though you'll never return,
|
I love you Audrey Hepburn
|
Sometimes I can see your face in the crowd
|
|
There are sailboats throughout this brilliant sky
|
But you cannot pick them out if you can't fly
|
I'm glad the Earth doesn't care
|
If I go up there
|
If you want to just ask me and I will take you along..
