Lyrics Natalie Imbruglia – Shikaiya (For Billy)
Text:
Five years old
A life that made me shy
I’m telling you
Shikaiya made me feel like I could fly
There she was so crazy
but she was on fire
the smile behind the door of every answer to my questions
you made it seem like everything was possible
and that’s where you stood out from everybody else
Shikaiya
That’s what your about and you should never lose yourself
Shikaiya
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 that old bay
you made me feel like everything was beautiful
and that’s where you stood out from everybody else
Shikaiya
and that’s what your about and you should never lose yourself
Shikaiya
Shikaiya nothing
mmm Shikaiya
Shikaiya
Shikaiya
that’s what your about and you should never lose yourself
Shikaiya
Shikaiya
but she was on fire
the smile behind the door of every answer to my questions
you made it seem like everything was possible
and that’s where you stood out from everybody else
Shikaiya
That’s what your about and you should never lose yourself
Shikaiya
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 that old bay
you made me feel like everything was beautiful
and that’s where you stood out from everybody else
Shikaiya
and that’s what your about and you should never lose yourself
Shikaiya
Shikaiya nothing
mmm Shikaiya
Shikaiya
Shikaiya
that’s what your about and you should never lose yourself
Shikaiya
Shikaiya
