Owl City - Dear Vienna lyrics

I regarded the world as such a sad sight
Until I viewed it in black and white
Then I reviewed every frame and basic shape
And sealed the exit's with caution tape
Don't refocus your eyes in the darkness
And don't remember this place unless
I describe all the things that you cannot see
And we'll unravel the mystery

Farewell, all my friends in textbooks
I'm going home because my blood cells cannot
Depend on the weather in photographs
There's a light show out my
Window somewhere way up there

Dear Vienna, are you singing?
Dear Vienna, are you swinging? Dear Vienna
We were happy like the shades of May
When we got carried away

I regarded the world as such a sad sight
Until I viewed it in black and white
Then I reviewed every frame and basic shape
And sealed the exit's with caution tape
Don't refocus your eyes in the darkness
And don't remember this place unless
I describe all the things that you cannot see
And we'll unravel the mystery

I was so far out of place
Watching those stars in outer space
Because I am so far from where you are
There's a light show out my
Window somewhere way up there

Dear Vienna, are you singing?
Dear Vienna, are you swinging? Dear Vienna
We were happy like the shades of May
When we got carried away
