Owl City - If My Heart Was A House
You're the sky that I fell through
And I remember the view whenever I'm holding you
The sun hung from a string looking down on the world as it warms over everything
Chills run down my spine as our fingers entwine
And your sighs harmonize with mine
Unmistakably, I can still feel your heart beat fast when you dance with me
We got older and I should've known
(Do you feel alive?)
That I feel colder when I walk alone
(Oh, but you'll survive)
So I may as well ditch my dismay
Bombs away
Bombs away
Circle me and the needle moves gracefully back and forth
If my heart was a compass, you'd be North
Risk it all 'cause I'll catch you if you fall
Wherever you go, if my heart was a house, you'd be home
It makes me smile because you said it best
I would clearly feel blessed if the sun rose up from the West
Flower balm perfume, all my clothes smell like you
'Cause your favorite shade is navy blue
I walk slowly when I'm on my own
(Do you feel alive?)
Yeah, but frankly I still feel alone
(Oh, but you'll survive)
So I may as well ditch my dismay
Bombs away
Bombs away
Circle me and the needle moves gracefully back and forth
If my heart was a compass, you'd be North
Risk it all 'cause I'll catch you if you fall
Wherever you go, if my heart was a house, you'd be home
If my heart was a house, you'd be home
the story behind this lyrics :
i think its more of a relationship that started at one point in their life and one person had to go somewhere far away (like long distance relationship sort of thing)
and when he says "It makes me smile because you said it best
I would clearly feel blessed if the sun rose up from the West"
to me it's saying person one tells person two that person two wants what he can't have and if would be happiest if he could have it. for example he would have it that she would come back.
and whether they broke up or grew apart he knows that his heart is where she belongs.
