[Chorus]
Skywriter
Sweep your silver pen across the sky
So high
Skywriter
Won't you write the biggest "I love you"
'Cross the sky
[Verse 1]
She don't read the letters
I write anymore
Sorry I upset her
But I wasn't sure
Now I know I love her
I hope that she will see
A message high above her
That you write for me, yeah
[Chorus]
Skywriter
Sweep your silver pen across the sky
So high
Skywriter
Won't you write the biggest "I love you"
'Cross the sky
[Break]
Hey!
Hey, hey, hey!
[Verse 2]
Send a box of candy
And flowers every day
Still she wouldn't listen
Her pride got in the way
Now it's up to you
It won't fade away
Write it on the heavens
Love will make it stay, yeah
[Chorus]
Skywriter
Sweep your silver pen across the sky
So high
Skywriter
Won't you write the biggest "I love you"
'Cross the sky
[Outro]
So high
So high
So high
So high
So high
So high
So high

Our loyal fans stuck with us on records like “‘I Am Love” and “Skywriter.’” These songs were musically ambitious pop recordings, with sophisticated string arrangements, but they weren’t right for us.
