OWL CITY
- If My Heart Was A House Lyrics / with translationsYou'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
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
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
