Float Away lyrics

[Verse 1]
Warm night, drive you home for the first time
No words, just stare into the night sky
So in love that we didn't even need to explain
Stopped the car, said she didn't want to go home
She said her parents didn't mind if she were out alone
But we could drive through the night, chase the morning away

[Pre-Chorus]
I said, "Your parents love you so"
And I told them I would have you home by 10
But just because tonight is over
Doesn't mean that this is the end, so hear me

[Chorus]
Float away, float away, float away now
We'll bе okay, be okay, be okay now
And we can takе it day by day
We'll take it day by day
And things will change, things will change, things will change now
But we'll remain just the same, just the same now
And I'm not here to make you stay
So darling, float away

[Verse 2]
Time was never on our side
Still kids, yeah, we never even tried
Growing up, giving it to the conformity
Uniformed as a service to my will
Called away to the hurting and the ill
Blink of the eye, and I'm holding you before I leave
[Pre-Chorus]
I told you that I loved you so
And God will put us where we need to be
Pushing through the tears, you said, "I know
But why doesn't He want you with me?"
And I say

[Chorus]
Float away, float away, float away now
We'll be okay, be okay, be okay now
And we can take it day by day
We'll take it day by day
And things will change, things will change, things will change now
And we'll remain just the same, just the same now
And I'm not here to make you stay
So darling, float away

[Bridge]
Dark room where the doctor gave the news
He said, "The last thing she'll remember is you
But then your name, then your face, everything will fade soon"
Quiet dinner at our table for two
I took her hand and told her we can make it through
I heard her whisper "I'm afraid to forget you"

[Pre-Chorus]
She said, "You're everything I know
I'm terrified of what I can't control
But now I have to let you go-oh"
So I said
[Chorus]
Float away, float away, float away now
I'll be okay, be okay, be okay now
And I can take it day by day
I'll take it day by day
(Yeah) And things will change
Things will change, things will change now
But we'll remain just the same, just the same now
And I'm not here to make you stay
So darling, float away
So darling, float away
(Float away, float away, float away now) Ohhh
(Float away, float away, float away) So darling, float away
(Float away, float away, float away now) Float away
(Float away, float away, float away) My darling, float away
So darling, float away
