A Floating Life (Demo Version) - Level 42[00:00:00]

Written by：Philip Gould/Mark King[00:00:02]

In your hands there's a photograph[00:00:43]

You look up she begins to laugh[00:00:46]

So cold as she walks away[00:00:50]

And you know that it's time to pay[00:00:53]

You're caught in a web you spun yourself[00:00:57]

Face to face with your failure this very day[00:01:00]

You call out her name you can't help yourself[00:01:04]

But you need love like you need a[00:01:07]

Kick in the head[00:01:10]

You worked hard for the things you own[00:01:11]

Fancy cars and a country home[00:01:14]

Gave it all for a glittering prize[00:01:18]

To be a face people recognize[00:01:21]

On the walls of your home there are works of art[00:01:25]

But you stare at the picture[00:01:28]

On the floor[00:01:31]

The face of a man with an aching heart[00:01:32]

It's no fun to be famous[00:01:35]

Anymore[00:01:38]

You said[00:01:39]

This is a sad day[00:01:42]

And I would gladly give it all away[00:01:45]

In exchange[00:01:50]

For a floating life[00:01:53]

Shed your tears for a shallow dream[00:02:07]

Let your cry be a primal scream[00:02:11]

A song through the mists of time[00:02:14]

A serenade to your concubine[00:02:18]

You were wrong to believe she could set you free[00:02:21]

You're trapped by the trappings[00:02:25]

Of success[00:02:28]

And you know the she'll never let you be[00:02:28]

'Til the world knows the secrets[00:02:32]

You confessed[00:02:35]

You said[00:02:35]

I see her cruel face[00:02:38]

My heart is nothing but an empty space[00:02:42]

And on this sad day[00:02:52]

I would gladly give it all away[00:02:56]

In exchange[00:03:01]

For a floating life[00:03:03]

Neither asleep nor awake[00:03:13]

Losing control you start to shake[00:03:16]

As the day begins to break[00:03:19]

They're gonna shoot you down in flames[00:03:27]

When that girl starts naming names[00:03:30]

There's nowhere to hide from your shame[00:03:34]

I see her cruel face[00:04:34]

My heart is nothing but an empty space[00:04:38]

And on this sad day[00:04:48]

I would gladly give it all away[00:04:52]

In exchange[00:04:57]

For a floating life[00:04:58]
