OWL CITY LYRICS - Hello Seattle

"Hello Seattle"



Hello Seattle, I am a mountaineer

In the hills and highlands

I fall asleep in hospital parking lots

And awake in your mouth



Hello Seattle, I am a manta ray

Deep beneath the blue waves

I'll crawl the sandy bottom of Puget Sound

And construct a summer home



Hello Seattle, I am the crescent moon

Shining down on your face

I will disguise myself as a sleeping pill

And descend inside of you



Hello Seattle, I am a cold seahorse

Feeling warm in your sand

I sing about the tide and the ocean surf

Rolling in the evening breeze



Hello Seattle, I am an albatross

On the docks and your boats

I sail above your inlets and interstates

Through the rain and open wind



Hello Seattle, I am an old lighthouse

Throwing beams of bright lights

Red in the morning, blue in the evening sun

Taking heed for everyone



Hello Seattle, I am a mountaineer

In the hills and highlands

I fall asleep in hospital parking lots



Take me above your light

Carry me through the night

Hold me secure in flight

Sing me to sleep tonight



Take me above your light (Hello Seattle, I am)

Carry me though the night (a mountaineer, in the hills)

Hold me secure in flight (And highlands, I fall asleep in hospital)

Sing me to sleep tonight (Parking lots, and awake in your mouth)
