lyrics

She pours another shot and wonders
How many men she has lain under
She thinks, I could have been so many things
Locks up the bar, walks to her car, wishes for Spring

At home her mother's on the sofa
She tells her friends it's she who's raising her granddaughter
She says, you should have known that boy'd disown
Anything resembling responsibility

Float away, float away
Why can't she just float away
Float away, float away
How she wants to float away

Her brother Robert used to tell her
Write your own life like a bestseller
He was just twenty-three that Christmas Eve
That say black ice did put him right into that tree

Float away, float away
Oh how could he float away
Float away, float away
How she wants to float away
Float away, float away
She just wants to float away

She says, I wasn't built to live like this
Life's hard enough without this shit

She lights another smoke and wonders
If maybe this will be the summer
She drops twenty pounds, goes from blonde to brown
Perhaps time's come for them to quit this fucking town

Float away, float away
How she wants to float away
Float away, float away
She just wants to float away
Float away, float away
Why can't she just float away
Float away, float away
Float away...
