And it seems like things are only getting better
Well it seems like we can never catch a break

Just keep a hold on me Don??t let go
If you float away If you float away
Waited too long for a ship to come
Don??t you float away Don??t you float away

C#(hold) C#(hold)
Let??s go to bed Let??s stop debating

And if you like (and if you like)
And if you like Some other time
I would like to introduce you to the finer things
If we survive (If we survive)

I??d like to say how beautiful I think you are
Chorus 2:
keep a hold on me Don??t let go
If you float away If you float away
Waited too long for a ship to come
Don??t you float away Don??t you float away
