"Floatin'" lyrics
"Floatin'"
Well, I had a dream about floatin'
Out there in a raft on the ocean
With my family far behind
Why are they hard to find?
Or up in the sky
But I'm up too high
My family's on the ground
And I can't quite come down
Cause I'm floatin'
Like on an ocean
I'm so surprised that I should be there for them
Those waves are tall and this raft is so small
Now the wind is there on the sea
This floatin's sendin' a chill through me
Floatin'
Like on the ocean
Yonder are dark clouds, yonder sounds the thunder
Well, I've been floatin', floatin' for a while
How much longer I wonder
And the breeze is there, and it's kind of cold
This floatin', floatin'
Well, I don't know about floatin'
You know, like on the ocean
Dream about floatin'
Like on the ocean
With my family somewhere behind
I don't like it when they're so far behind
I had a dream then about bein' in the sky
Okay, but I'm up a little too high
And my family's on the ground
That's no good, cause I can't come down
See, I'm floatin'
Almost like bein' on an ocean
And I'm so surprised that it should be I
Who'd be there floatin'
Them waves are fair tall, and this raft feels so small
And now the wind comes up on the sea
This floatin', floatin' is chillin' to me
Floatin'
Like on the ocean
Yon dark clouds out there, yonder sounds the thunder
Well this floatin' was okay for a while
But now for how long I wonder
And the breeze comes up on the sea
This floatin' is hurtin' me
Floatin'
Like on the ocean
Floatin'
Like on the ocean
