[Intro]
Float on by
Float on by
[Verse 1]
It’s good to be a lover, it hurts to be loved
It hurts to be a story (Stay up)
It’s good to stay open, but then you’re exposed
To all of this closing (Hold up)
So I could say I love you, and you could say it back
And we could both mean it (Stay up)
Isn’t it heavy that one of these days
It could just be part of our routine? (Hold up)
[Chorus]
It’s body and soul, it’s yes and it’s no
So I’m letting it go
'Cause everyone knows that nobody knows
So I’m letting it go
[Verse 2]
If I could just hang up and start again
I’d fuck up all the same shit (Stay up)
'Cause, life, it’s like a puzzle that you gotta solve
Without all of the pieces (Hold up)
You could actually be an astronaut looking back at Earth
Thinking, "How did I not see this?" (Stay up)
Or you could be in LA, staring at your bills
Wearing a brand new t-shirt (Hold up)
[Chorus]
It comes and it goes, it’s hot and it’s cold
So I’m letting it go (You could try less)
'Cause everyone knows that nobody knows
So I’m letting it go (Just coast)
[Post-Chorus]
And I’ll just float on by (So I’m letting it go)
And I’ll just float on by
[Verse 3]
So I try to stop the future from leaning on the past
But it never really works for me (Stay up)
The longer that you’re something, the more you forget
That isn’t what you have to be (Hold up)
I mean you could be an analyst of analysis
You could be mad at your computer (Stay up)
Or you could just steal something and turn up all the noise
And pass it off as something newer (Hold up)
[Chorus]
It’s body and soul, it’s yes and it’s no
So I’m letting it go (You could be hopeless, way up high)
'Cause everyone knows that nobody knows
So I’m letting it go
[Post-Chorus]
And I’ll just float on by (So I'm letting it go)
And I’ll just float on by
[Outro]
Stay up
