The Sifters

Sound is a wave like a wave on the ocean
 Moon plays the ocean like a violin, pushing and pulling
 From shore to shore, biggest melody you never heard before, no
 What if I were the night sky? I were the night sky
 It's my lullaby to leave by
 What if we hadn't been born at the same time
 What if you were 75 and I were nine?
 Would I still visit you?
 Bring you cookies in an old folks' home
 Would you be there alone?
 When the late summer line fires off in your arms
 Will I remember to breathe? No, I never will
 In a fire, I could convince you that I mean you no harm
 Just wanna show you I'm not too mean
 If I were the the night sky, and if I were the night sky
 Here's my lullaby
 My lullaby to leave by
 Lullaby to leave by
 If I were the night
 ♪
 What if we hadn't been each other at the same time?
 Would you tell me all the stories
 From when you were young and in your prime?
 Would I rock you to sleep?
 Would you tell me all the secrets you don't need to keep?
 Would I still miss you?
 Oh, would you then have been mine?
 Sound is a wave like a wave on the ocean
 Moon plays the ocean like a violin
 Pushing and pulling from shore to shore
 Biggest melody you've never heard before
 What if I were the night sky? I were the night sky
 Here's my lullaby to leave my
 My lullaby to leave by
 Lullaby to leave by
 If I were the night sky
