Alligator sky [French translation]

(Chorus)

Where was I when the rockets came to life

And carried you away into the alligator sky?

Even though, I'll never know what's up ahead

I'm never lettin' go

I'm never lettin' go

Uh uh, that's not a plane, that's me

I'm sittin' where I'm supposed to

Floatin' on the cloud

Can't nobody come close to

The concrete and the sky switch places

So now my ceiling is painted

With cosmic spaces

Firecracker to the moon

Keep your eyes shut

Blastin' off like a rocket from the ground up

Heh, I used to catch a cab on the Monday

Now the taxi's sellin' lights on the runway, fly

A condo on the milky way

A house on the cloud and God's my landlord

And for my rent all I pay is my drive

Got that so If you need me

You can find me in the alligator sky

(Chorus)

Roller coaster through the atmosphere

I'm drowning in this starry serenade

Where ecstasy becomes cavalier

My imagination's taking me away

Reverie whispered in my ear

I'm scared to death

That I'll never be afraid

Roller coaster through the atmosphere

My imagination's taking me away

Uh, now I'mma dance like I never dance

Sing like I never sing

Dream like I've never dreamed

Or try to, 'cause we've been lied to

That the sun is somethin'

That we can't fly to

Well, I sit on my star

And see street lights

Look up

You'll miss me if you blink twice

Imagination is hot

And if you got it you can meet me

When you see me in the alligator sky

(Chorus)

Owl City!

("There's a fundamental truth to our nature;

Man must explore")

Where was I when the rockets came to life

(Keep your eyes shut)

And carried you away into the alligator sky?

(Oh, like a rocket from the ground up)

Even though, I'll never know what's up ahead

(On the Milky Way)

I'm never lettin' go

(I'mma dream like I've never dreamed)

I'm never lettin' go

In the alligator sky

(In the alligator sky)

In the alligator sky

(Look up

You'll miss me if you blink twice)

In the alligator sky

(In the alligator sky)

In the alligator sky
