Bubbles Lyrics

Misty mountain crevices hold treasures buried deep
A blizzard or rain can't wash any memories that you keep
I just came in on the banana boat, got born only yesterday
Came down through the stars, I landed from Mars
Made my way through the Milky Way

Last I saw you metamorphasized, a chrysalis into a butterfly
You opened your wings, such beautiful things, and then I saw you fly away so high
A bird's-eye view up to the stratosphere, all the universe reflected in your eyes
I came to despise your see-through disguise
Your web of lies, and all the empty words you say

I see you like a bubble in the air
But bubbles can rise
But pop when they reach the top
I see you like a bubble in the air
But bubbles can rise

Last I saw you change inside, a chrysalis into a butterfly
You open your wings, such beautiful things
And then I watch you fly away to die
I just came in on the banana boat, got born only yesterday
Came down through the stars, I landed from Mars
Made my way through the Milky Way

I see you like a bubble in the air
But bubbles can rise
But pop when they reach the top
I see you like a bubble in the air
But bubbles can rise
But pop when they reach the top

I see you like a bubble in the air
But bubbles can rise
But pop when they reach the top

I see you like a bubble in the air
But bubbles can rise
But pop when they reach the top

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
