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
