about
This version could not be more different than the original off of my Dirty Mind record (Nettwerk 2008). I chose to strip the production way down to just piano and vocal, with a spooky slide guitar as the only other instrumentation. I also changed the lyrics and chord changes slightly in the bridge... The song is about feeling connected to someone despite physical distance. Hope you enjoy. ~ Sara
lyrics
You fell down to me
Out of the great big blue
And suddenly no one else will do
You’re inside my eyes
The moon was new
It was the first day of spring
The very beginning
Of our big surprise
Look up at the turquoise sky
The first star’s the one I’m wishing on tonight
Wherever you go, so will I
We walk below the same sky
I threw my quarter to the wishing well
I kissed your head, we heard the children yell
I was high underneath your spell
In the softest sun
It felt like you could be the one
Look up at the turquoise sky
The first star’s the one that I’m wishing on tonight
Wherever you go, so will I
We walk below the same sky
We walk below the same sky
Wherever you are, look up at the last day’s light
See the first star, that’s the one that I’m wishing on tonight
Wherever you go, so will I
We walk below the same sky
So look up at the turquoise sky
The first star’s the one I’m wishing on tonight
Wherever you go, so will I
We walk below the same sky
We walk below the same sky
We walk below the same sky
Out of the great big blue
And suddenly no one else will do
You’re inside my eyes
The moon was new
It was the first day of spring
The very beginning
Of our big surprise
Look up at the turquoise sky
The first star’s the one I’m wishing on tonight
Wherever you go, so will I
We walk below the same sky
I threw my quarter to the wishing well
I kissed your head, we heard the children yell
I was high underneath your spell
In the softest sun
It felt like you could be the one
Look up at the turquoise sky
The first star’s the one that I’m wishing on tonight
Wherever you go, so will I
We walk below the same sky
We walk below the same sky
Wherever you are, look up at the last day’s light
See the first star, that’s the one that I’m wishing on tonight
Wherever you go, so will I
We walk below the same sky
So look up at the turquoise sky
The first star’s the one I’m wishing on tonight
Wherever you go, so will I
We walk below the same sky
We walk below the same sky
We walk below the same sky
