A Floating Life Lyrics

	作曲 : Philip Gould & Mark King
	作词 : Gould, King
	In your hands there's a photograph
	You look up, she begins to laugh
	So cold as she walks away
	And you know that it's time to pay
	You're caught in a web you spun yourself
	Face to face with your failure this very day
	You call out her name you can't help yourself
	But you need love like you need a - kick in the head
	You worked hard for the things you own
	Fancy cars and a country home
	Gave it all for a glittering prize
	To be a face people recognise
	On the walls of your home there are works of art
	But you stare at the picture - on the floor
	The face of a man with an aching heart
	It's no fun to be famous anymore
	(you said )
	This is a sad day
	And i would gladly give it all away
	In exchange
	For a floating life
	Shed your tears for a shallow dream
	Let your cry be a primal scream
	A song through the mists of time
	A serenade to your concubine
	You were wrong to believe she could set you free
	You're trapped by the trappings - of success
	And you know the she'll never let you be
	'til the world knows the secrets - you confessed
	(you said)
	I see her cruel face
	My heart is nothing but an empty space
	And on this sad day
	I would gladly give it all away
	In exchange
	For a floating life
	Neither asleep nor awake
	Losing control you start to shake
	As the day begins to break
	They're gonna shoot you down in flames
	When that girl starts naming names
	There's nowhere to hide from your shame
