Blue Rodeo - Floating lyrics

rate me

Lead Vocal by Greg<br />

<br />

Well, these late night conversations<br />

Leave a strange taste,<br />

Like french cigarettes.<br />

And these coloured drinks<br />

That you keep on throwin' at me<br />

Just keep on reminding me<br />

I came to forget.<br />

<br />

So now every night<br />

You insist on reminding me<br />

Of my lost possibilities<br />

And the stains on the wall.<br />

Well, I don't mean to complain<br />

But it hurts just the same.<br />

And now both of us know<br />

The leaves will fall on their own.<br />

<br />

Just throw me a line<br />

That's all that I ask<br />

Well, it's sink or swim and I'm goin' fast<br />

I need love and it's you<br />

And I feel like William Holden floating in a pool.<br />

<br />

Yea, you tell me<br />

Life is for living<br />

It's best in the giving<br />

But it's so hard to be free.<br />

Still I do my best<br />

But you refuse my gift<br />

And now all that we share<br />

Is a collection of tears.<br />

<br />

Just throw me a line<br />

That's all that I ask<br />

Well, it's sink or swim and I'm going fast<br />

I need love and it's you<br />

And I feel like William Holden floating in a pool.<br />
