Verse 1
sigh - for they make you feel alive
try - it's just one step aside
fly - over seas of drunken wine
lie - cause you'll never draw a line
Don’t dive too deep -too deep into the sea
Chorus
come and be a child of the blue
we make the azure dream come true
verse 2
cry - for they leave you cold and dead
ride - til the last of suns is set
don't dive too deep - too deep into the sea
Chorus
come and be a child of the blue
we make the azure dream come true
Bridge
i drift and fall - sapphire spear inside
they come for me and softly close my eyes
Verse 3
fight - for this is your last chance
Chorus
come and be a child of the blue
leave the past, we make it new
you will always be our child
