Shikaiya (For Billy)
Natalie Imbruglia · White Lilies Island [2001]
Five years old and life had made me shy
I'm telling you
Shikaiya made me feel like I could fly
And there she was so crazy but she was on fire
A smile behind the door of every answer to my questions
You made it seem like everything was possible
That's where you stood out from everybody else
Shikaiya
Yeah
That's what you're about and you should never lose yourself
Shikaiya
Yeah
Down the phone
Years and miles apart
We try to find the magic we used to bounce from heart to heart
But you don't seem to believe in anything today
I wonder if your dreams got smashed upon the rocks of Bateau Bay
You made me feel like every wave is beautiful
I'm telling you
Shikaiya made me feel like I could fly
And there she was so crazy but she was on fire
A smile behind the door of every answer to my questions
You made it seem like everything was possible
That's where you stood out from everybody else
Shikaiya
Yeah
That's what you're about and you should never lose yourself
Shikaiya
Yeah
Down the phone
Years and miles apart
We try to find the magic we used to bounce from heart to heart
But you don't seem to believe in anything today
I wonder if your dreams got smashed upon the rocks of Bateau Bay
You made me feel like every wave is beautiful
