Cotton Candy Skies by Mellowood Lyrics

[Verse 1}
I had a dream that felt so real one day
I packed my bags and sailed away
To a place I knew my heart could stay
But it killed me just to see it fade
And when I woke up to the pouring rain
Wishing I could stop this train
Lost in oceans of escape
I'm a stranger to this world awake

[Hook]
I know, I know, I know it's hard to find
But the horizon makes me feel so far behind
But I know, I know, I know, I gotta try
Or I'll regret it up until the day I die

[Chorus 1]
If I could sail away
From my today
I won't turn back
The other way
I'd only see
Cotton candy skies
[Verse 2]
I had a dream that stuck with me last night
I was lost in paradise
But the feeling made me realize
I could not believe my eyes
When I woke up from that long plane ride
On my flight back to real life
I looked out the window to the skies
And I questioned my destiny's disguise

[Hook]
And I know, I know, I know it's hard to find
The horizon makes me feel so far behind
But I know, I know, I know, I gotta try
Or I'll regret it up until the day I die

[Chorus 2]
If I could fly away
Leaving the world behind me
I wouldn't hesitate
To go where they won't ever find me
Oh, why, why can't I just see
Cotton candy skies

[Bridge]
Wish I could be anywhere than here (anywhere but here)
Wish I could be anywhere than here (anywhere but here)
Wish I could be anywhere than here (anywhere but here)
Wish I could be anywhere than here (anywhere but here)
Wish I could be anywhere than here (anywhere than)
Anywhere than anywhere
Anywhere than here
If I could sail the world (Leaving the world behind me)
I won't turn back (Go where they won't ever find me)
I'd only see
[Chorus]
If I could sail the world
If I could fly away
From my today
Leaving the world behind me
I won't turn back
I wouldn't hesitate
The other way
To go where they won't ever find me
I'd only see
Oh, why, why can't I just see
Cotton candy skies
