In "Silver Sky," Holly Humberstone remembers the glow of early love, from angel threads and Disney birds to getting high under chemtrails and talking about higher powers. The garden becomes a place where growing old together feels both sweet and sexy, a private universe for just the two of them. The odds of finding this connection, one in seven billion, make it feel like magic worth protecting. She wants closeness, slowness, and playful intimacy, asking only that the feeling be mutual.
Silver Sky Lyrics by Holly Humberstone
Can you see it?
The soft glow from the day we met
There was some kind of angel thread
Tying us to each other
Did you hear it?
When we kissed, there were Disney birds
Grab a beer, watch the fireworks
There’s so many colours
And everything is so green
In the garden, just imagine growing old, yeah
I wanna get stoned and fool around with you
If that’s cool with you, ooh
I wanna get close and slow it down with you
If you’re down, then, honey, I’m down too
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Can you picture it?
Chemtrails in a silver sky
You get so philosophical when we get high
Think you got a higher power (Think you got a higher power)
Just the two of us
Kicking ass in the universe
Is it me or does this just work?
You can call me a flower
You’re my honeybee, and it’s so sweet
In the garden, just imagine growing old
I don’t know, it just feels sexy
I wanna get stoned and fool around with you
If that’s cool with you, ooh
I wanna get close and slow it down with you
If you’re down, honey, what are the chances of us falling?
It’s one in seven billion, and it happened
It happened
It’s the closest you can get to magic
Yeah
I wanna get stoned and fool around with you (Around with you)
If that’s cool with you (If that’s cool with you), ooh
I wanna get close and slow it down with you
So, if you’re down, then, honey, I’m down too
