Turn the lights out

The darkness will be our only sight

Come on with me now

Close your eyes and follow the light

Where we end up

Will be right where we belong

So come hold my hand now

And help me sing this song



Turn the sound off

Silence will be our only sound

Come on with me now

In my mind there’s a merry-go-round

Climb onto your horse

And gallop away to the sun

So come join my side now

And witness two become one



…And if it was up to me

We would erase all the lines

The separate our bodies

We would laugh all the time

And sip all the water from the seas

We would roam the fields of love

Without a single care

We would free all the doves

And watch them fly in the air

So grab the eraser

And help me eliminate reality

And if it was up to me

We would be just you and me



…if it was up to me…



Don’t turn the lights on

We don’t want to ruin this dream

Come on with me now

For reality is often the opposite of how it may seem

Where we end up

Is right where we told them we would be

So open your heart now

And come write this poem with me



Don’t turn the sound on

We don’t want to be brainwashed by the noise

Tell them to mind their own business now

And go bother some other girls and boys

Climb onto your horse

And ride away to a utopia in your head

So open your mind now

And don’t listen to a single word that anyone else has said



…And if it was up to me

We would erase all the lines

The separate our bodies

We would smile all the time

And drain all the water out of the seas

We would roam the fields of love

Without a single care

We would release all the doves

And watch them fly freely in the air

So grab the eraser

And help me eliminate reality

And if it was up to me

We would be just you and me



…if it was up to me…



…it would be just you and me…



…but nothing is up to me…
