There's a heavy influence from Elliott Smith on this one.
lyrics
if i were a woodchuck
and you were a whale
i’d put on fake fins
and tailor a tail
i’d leave my own kind
set out to sea
on a boat i would make
out of branches and leaves
i’d ask all the fish
if they’d heard your name
on some kind of current
on some kind of wave
and eventually
at a plankton cafe
i’d run in to you
at which point i’d say
i know
your face
you’re the one
i’ve seen in my dreams
this might
sound strange
but i think
we’re meant to be
you and me
if you lived on pluto
and i lived on mars
i’d look up in the sky
past all the stars
i’d espy your shine
and then set my sights
construct a spaceship
and gear up for flight
i’d take off with speed
and ground with grace
immediately look all
over the place
and eventually
at an ice-frozen lake
i’d run in to you
at which point i’d say
i know
your face
you’re the one
i’ve seen in my dreams
this might
sound strange
but i think
we’re meant to be
you and me
no matter the distance
or the difference
i’ll always love you the same
whether the sun
is
out
or the rain pours down
i’ll be in love
with
you
as long as you
love
me
too
