Level 42 - A Floating Life Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • In your hands theres a photograph
  • You look up, she begins to laugh
  • So cold as she walks away
  • And you know that its time to pay
  • Youre caught in a web you spun yourself
  • Face to face with your failure this very day
  • You call out her name you cant help yourself
  • But you need love like you need a - kick in the head
  • You worked hard for the things you own
  • Fancy cars and a country home
  • Gave it all for a glittering prize
  • To be a face people recognise
  • On the walls of your home there are works of art
  • But you stare at the picture - on the floor
  • The face of a man with an aching heart
  • Its no fun to be famous anymore
  • (you said )
  • This is a sad day
  • And I would gladly give it all away
  • In exchange
  • For a floating life
  • Shed your tears for a shallow dream
  • Let your cry be a primal scream
  • A song through the mists of time
  • A serenade to your concubine
  • You were wrong to believe she could set you free
  • Youre trapped by the trappings - of success
  • And you know the shell never let you be
  • til the world knows the secrets - you confessed
  • (you said)
  • I see her cruel face
  • My heart is nothing but an empty space
  • And on this sad day
  • I would gladly give it all away
  • In exchange
  • For a floating life
  • Neither asleep nor awake
  • Losing control you start to shake
  • As the day begins to break
  • Theyre gonna shoot you down in flames
  • When that girl starts naming names
  • Theres nowhere to hide from your shame
