Perch

I'm just a bird on a perch and I'm on a search for the
Prettiest creature in the seven seas
And then I saw you on the street you were just walking to the beat
You had the prettiest features that I'd ever seen.
I put my hands into my pockets and I climbed into my rocket
And I flew then threw a kick-ass party on the moon.
And though I had a good time (Just as worthy as explosions in my mind)
I swear the whole time I was thinking of you, while I sing...
And I whistle too...
While I'm missing you...
And so I climbed out of my spaceship and I went down to my basement
And I picked up my guitar: Started writing this song and you'll see (even though you're blind)
I hope you're hearing this song, you'll play it all night long.
And though you'll think I'm wrong, at least you're thinking of me, while I sing...
And I whistle too...
While I'm missing you...
I know a place where we can go to sleep.
Down by the shore on the floor by the deep blue sea.

Your love is so pure
And I just hope you're
Safe at home and thinking of me too.
I love your smile
Please stay for awhile
And you and I can lye under the moon.
Deep in the closet
Lyes a shamrock
That makes all of my wishes come true.
We'll wish for something
But I want nothing
But to give all of my kisses to you.
Because I care, it's the only excuse for me...
Because I care, it's the only excuse I'll need...
In the water
Is where I saw her
Standing there beneath the sun.
And there is nowhere
I'd rather be, dear.
You are my excuse to love.
Because I care, it's the only excuse for me...
Because I care, it's the only excuse I'll need...

I wish you could sit under the stars with me tonight.
A million evenings and this one just feels so right.
Stay with me and just hold my hand so tight.
I've never ever kissed you but under this moon, i might.
You've got my heart singing...
And we could spend the night together
And we could give love and hold each other close.
A kiss on the cheek to keep me from feeling alone.
The wind in your hair and the eyes that I've always known.
You keep me warm even when I'm feeling cold.
Your smile is the sunshine, your heartbeat is my home.
You've got my love singing...
And we could spend the night together
And we could give love and hold each other close.

The water is endless waves of happiness.
and I'm waiting near, wondering how it's happening.
And if you, like me, are afraid of the words "Come down."
Come down to the shore where we can get lost but never be found.
We fell asleep int the sand around the bend.
And you're more to me than just a friend
And if you, like me, are afraid of the words "Come down."
Come down to the shore where we can get lost but never be found.

If seeing you is a treat well then I guess I want to fast and it breaks my heart apart to know that these good things will never last.
I see the way adores you I want to love you 10 times more just let your guard down and give me the chance.
Today I read a book and I played knight and you played rook and saved you from the serpents of the sea.
We didn't feel the need to speak, and then you kissed me on the cheek and I pinched myself and woke up from that dream.
and I sing "I love everyone but I've never loved anyone."
And you're pushing my buttons as I push in the buttons of my shirt.
I'm never happy, I'm never good, I'm never bad, and I'm having such a hard time getting over something I never had.
Well I'll write these songs for you in hopes that you'll applaud them, and I realize that tears as pointless the ones that cause them.
Well my bed's a haven for this mess. You are my heaven in a dress, but that heaven's in somebody else's arms.
And I don't mean to sound impotent but my heart is surely broke and this twee display of my emotion won't draw her any closer.
I sing "I love everyone but I've never loved anyone"
I can't believe that this will be the last time that I see you...
I surely hope that this isn't the end.
