seagull orchestra (owl city) - sailboats (slowed + reverb)

All music and images rightfully belongs to the original owners, please give proper credit to all the media out there

So basically this is like the very first Owl City song before the first EP of 2007, Of June. This version must’ve been made months before Sky Sailing was in production during 2006, the album An Airplane Carried Me To Bed was recorded the same year Seagull Orchestra was produced, the Sky Sailing album was eventually published and polished in 2010. Sailboats must’ve been Adam Young’s first song involving his singing voice, the Seagull Orchestra song was rewritten and polished for the Sky Sailing album. I don’t even know what happened actually, this is confusing

seagull orchestra - sailboats lyrics:

Sailboats wish that they were stars
Floating softly in the sky
Among the spheres that bid goodbye
Moving through transparent seas
Drifting through the stratosphere
And onward till they disappear
The continents from overhead
Look like tiny paper shapes
Intricately set in place
Below the airplanes and the clouds
There's a lovely silver bay
Where sailors often hide away

[Accordion and drum duet]

An airplane carried me to bed
Where I slept above the coast
And dreamt I had become a ghost
I sailed above the mountain peaks
Deep in underwater caves
And somehow I walked on the waves

Scuba diver in the loch
Speedboat driver on the dock
Sailplane pilot in the blue
Take me up there with you
Ocean freighter and a bountiful of snow

I was walking through the trees
I was sailing through the seas
I was falling through the air
When it hit me right there
The seagull doesn't even care about the news

[Piano and drum duet]

Do boats get lonely in the night?
When the side walks fill with leaves
And joggers taste the evening breeze

Buildings, and freeways
And street lights, and painted pavements
Hotels, and on ramps
And road signs at the trail
Branches, and sky ways
And railroads, and heavy traffic
Runways, and restaurants
And subways at the L
Inlets, and harbors
And islands, and white sand beaches
Skylines, and sunsets
Where ocean meets the sky

Drive the car on the run
Fly the jet to the sun
Bring the spaceship in soon
While I'll play golf on the moon
My eyes are tired and I fall asleep
Once in 1964
(Sailboats wish that they were stars)
An actress ran on the shore
(Sailboats wish that they were stars)
Dancing slow and in turn
I love you Audrey Hepburn
Steal your statue back and we’ll fall in love
