Owl City - Designer Skyline lyrics

Affection, the gifted architect Is making a draft and beautiful design The options and possibilities Are endless when we connect and realign Collections of books and documents Arise and parade around my cluttered desk Reworking the math and measurements Until I'm convinced these plans are picturesque Like mountains in the Midwest Reaction creates the columns dark And wide like the roads around Fort Lauderdale The structures begin to take their shape Before I've designed the public monorail The turnpike and high-speed motorway Connect and enclose the quaint suburban streets The airport, the broad suspension bridge, The lake and the beach where several rivers meet Compounded from the spreadsheet A city sparkles in the night How can it glow so bright? The neighborhoods surround The soft florescent light Designer skyline in my head Abstract and still well read You went from numbered lines To buildings overhead
