Through the silent stars they swim, Swimming in the midnight wind, Moonlight through their paper skin, Quiet, gentle, monstrous friends. Sky whales, Sky whales. Songs that rumble long and low, Like distant thunder; deep and slow, Songs that last a hundred years, Only quiet hearts can hear. Sky whales, Sky whales. Let's take a bedtime walk tonight, Breathe the cool damp moonlit night, Down the old road lined with pines, Leave the worried world behind. See these eyes they aren't so young, I used to love the things above, I haven't seen them in so long, Perhaps you'll help me hear the songs Of sky whales, Sky whales. Cause only hopeful eyes can dream, And only quiet hearts can see... Sky whales, Sky whales.
