Lirik Float
the sound of the rain
candles shift the walls, moving sharply
what's left to explain
Â
when you told me you ought to be going
I could sense how the night was exploding
Â
if I told you that I noticed
if I told you this for certain
you'd see me as scarred
your eyes so strained, so innocent
in a sense it's the way we both are
Â
so don't show me the home you've recaptured don't remind me, I was there when it shattered each time I returned to the ocean
I walked on the cold sandand it taught me
Â
to float, like a bird across the sky
watching all the moments ease by
feeling close enough to try
Â
in the darkness in a shadow
in the places only I know
I run from the rain
my eyes so wide so desperate
to pull light from the pain
Â
so don't show me I learned my own balance don't remind me, my whole world
was challenged
each time I return to the ocean
I close my eyes, I listen
Â
I float, like a bird across the sky
watching all the moments ease by
feeling close enough to try
close enough this time
Â
in this strange place
there's no direction to guide us around
the ones that move slowly
keep to the ground
and in some distant time
when your reflection
appears a stranger from some other day
I'll know what you're thinking
I'll feel the same way
Â
I float, like a bird across the sky
time and time again I know why
I feel close enough to try
Â
I close my eyes and
Â
float, across the sky
watching as the moments ease by
so close, close enough to try
