We Float Lyrics - Polly Jean Harvey

We wanted to find love 

We wanted success 

Until nothing was enough 

Until my middle name was "excess" 

And somehow I lost touch 

When you went out of sight 

When you got lost into the city 

Got lost into the night 

I was in need of help 

Heading to blackout 

Till someone told me "run on in, honey, 

Before somebody blows your goddamn brains out" 

You shoplifted as a child 

I had a model's smile 

You carried all my hopes 

Until something broke inside 

But now we float 

Take life as it comes 

We float 

Take life as it comes 

So will we die of shock 

Die without a trial 

Die on good friday 

While holding each other tight 

This is kind of about you 

This is kind of about me 

We just kind of lost our way 

We were looking to be free 

But one day, we'll float 

Take life as it comes 

We'll float 

Take life as it comes 

But one day, we'll float 

Take life as it comes 

But one day, we'll float 

Take life as it comes 

Oh, one day...
