Floating In A Dream I float above the sea and sky
I am floating oh so high
I look down as the world floats by
The wind seems to make me cry
I float across the sandy shores
Floating on forever more
As I float across the shores
I hear the seagulls as they call
I continue floating on
I look back and the sea is gone
I look down at what I now see
Nothing but fields are beneath me
As I continue floating high
Over the fields beneath this sky
I see lots of sheep and cows
Grazing in the fields so green
I look on as far as I can see
Now all I see are lots of trees
Some are tall and some are short
Some of them have been spoilt
Drifting on toward the horizon
The sun I see is slowly rising
The sky starts turning red then blue
Could it be I'm floating to you?
I float towards a tiny town
I do not know if I'm homeward bound
Yet as this town draws closer to me
The buildings seem familiar to me
I float down toward a house
I'm sure I recognise this house
This is the house of my lost love
This is the house of one true love
There is no one in this house
Not even a tiny mouse
It is empty like my heart
Empty like my broken heart
As I float in these four walls
I think about the possible cause
The cause that's made her move away
And why I've floated in this way
I see her picture on the wall
This makes no sense at all
Why have I floated here?
Why have I been brought here?
Could it be that I have died?
Causing me to float and glide
Or is this just a dream of mine?
Searching for something I need to find
Now as I start to float away
Tears start rolling down my face
I start to weep for the love I lost
I start to weep for a love that's gone
I float back across the town
Over the trees and fields so brown
I float out across the sea
Back to where I'm meant to be
I float out toward the moon
And slowly start floating down
I float into another house
Into a body that's relaxed
I wake up and gasp for air
Hoping to see my true love there
I look around for my lost love
But as I look she can't be found
I sit up and wipe my eyes
Because by now I've started to cry
It all seemed so real to me
I was just floating in a dream
