Swimming In Miami - Owl City

I’m alone above the atmosphere

And no one looking up can find me here

‘Cause I can close my eyes, and disappear

When I climb the stairs, to watch the sun

Above the station walls, the colors run

To fill the swimming pool, when I am done

I am the captain of an oil tanker that travels through your veins

When the satellites hang all around

And I can finally hear the lovely sound

When all the engines in the back room die down

All the airships move across the sky

And my equipment just keeps standing by

The planets glow, and intensify

I am the pilot of a cargo airplane that travels through your veins

When you are lying half asleep in your room

Unaware if it is midnight, or afternoon

Because the water doesn’t flood the stairwell

It could be raining, but then you can never tell

If you’re alone in this awful downpour

Then struggle free and paddle out the cellar door

In the evening light, the boulevard

Conceals the nigh, t with disregard

For all the workers in the west coast ship yard

When I rearrange, the silverware

And re-install the lights, in captain’s chair

I’ll lift the ceiling off to breathe the ocean air

I am the engineer of forty freight trains that travel through your veins

When you are lying half asleep in your room

Unaware if it is midnight, or afternoon

Because the water doesn’t flood the stairwell

It could be raining, but then you can never tell

If you’re awake in this awful downpour

Then struggle free and paddle out the cellar door

When you are swimming in Miami at night

I’m all around you in the traffic and city light
