Sky Sailing- Sailboats

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..

备注部分：

事实上Sky Sailing的成立要早于Owl City。有别于Owl City的音乐形式，Sky Sailing更偏重于原音吉他与钢琴的融合。可以这么理解，Sky Sailing是Owl City的不插电版本。

新专辑[An Airplane Carried Me To Bed]中的歌曲实际上是在07年夏天，也就是在Owl City还没走红之前就已录制完成了。如今Owl City大受欢迎，Adam也觉得是时候将这些早期作品发表，并“重新润色”，让他的忠实歌迷们感受一个有别于Owl City的Adam Young。
