Vanilla Sky Lyrics


The chef prepares a special menu
For your delight, oh my.
Tonight you fly, so high up
In the Vanilla Sky

Your life is fine
It's sweet and sour
Unbearable great
You've got to learn
Every hour, you must appreciate.

This is your time,
This is your day.
You've got it all.
Don't blow it away.

The chef prepares a special menu
For your delight, oh my.
Tonight you fly, so high up
In the Vanilla Sky.

Melted tin beads,
Cast you fortune
In a glass of wine.

Snail or fish,
Balloon or dolphin
See your silver shine.

This is your time,
This is your day.
You've got it all,
Don't blow it away.

The chef prepares a special menu
For your delight, oh my.
Tonight you fly, so high up
In the Vanilla Sky
In the vanilla,uh, in the vanilla,oh, in the vanilla sky.
In the vanilla,ah, in the vanilla,uh, in the vanilla sky.
Mmmm in the Vanilla Sky

Vanilla Sky
  • Director Cameron Crowe asked Paul to do this song for his movie, Vanilla Sky. Crowe used to be a reporter for Rolling Stone magazine, and is married to Nancy Wilson from the group Heart. Music plays a big role in his movies - he used Peter Gabriel's "In Your Eyes" in Say Anything, and based his 2000 movie Almost Famous on his experiences as a rock writer.
  • The lyrics were inspired by a waiter who brought a dish to McCartney's table that he hadn't ordered.
  • McCartney won a Golden Globe for this song. (thanks, Klasic Rok - Battle Ground, WA, for all above)
  • When Cameron Crowe asked McCartney to do a song for the movie, Paul at first suggested "From A Lover To A Friend" from his recent album Driving Rain. (thanks, Tommy - flower mound, TX)
  • This was included on McCartney's 2002 live album Back In The US, which was recorded on his 2001-2002 tour.
