Owl City — Dreams Don’t Turn to Dust

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] I made for the countryside And my eyes never grew so wide Apple raspberry river blue I don't want to leave without you In the sound I'll gladly drown Into the emerald underground I rub my eyes because it's hard to see Surrounded by all this beauty [Chorus] 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 [Bridge] (I'm sad to see you go) (But I'd rather be alone) [Verse 3] When tiger eyes begin making you blush And when diamonds boast that they can't be crushed Let 'em go, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust [Chorus] 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 [Outro] Dreams don't turn to dust Dreams don't turn to dust I'll rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust!
