Love Don't Float
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She said Baby get me out of here
And right then I knew just where
A little place not far away
A little less than half a day
Behind the wheel
So we left out in the pouring rain
And headed down that interstate
Tryin' to leave the clouds behind
Not knowing if we'd ever find
the sun that day
We found ourselves lost in conversation
About a hundred miles beyond our destination
And she just laughed
She Said it ain't about an exit past
A dot on the map no, that ain't where we're goin'
It ain't about the road we're on
How far we've gone as long as we keep rollin'
It's not about the path we take
Or the end of the line
It's not about us getting somewhere
As fast as we can drive
She said BabyI've been staring out the window all day
I keep seeing your ship sail away
I just read your letter last night
Now you're so far out of sight
I held a treasure in my hand
I lost it like a shell in the sand
You're out there in deep blue
My heart's there with you
There is an island
Two lovers aim for
Sailin' together
To reach that shore
You only get so many chances
You can't afford to miss the boat
Or your heart will go sinkin'
'Cause love don't float
I'll be waitin' til you throw me a line
Honey I'll know what to do this time
I'm never gonna give up hope
I wait for the boat
There is an island
Two lovers aim for
Sailin' together
To reach that shore
You only get so many chances
You can't afford to miss the boat
Or your heart will go sinkin'
'Cause love don't float
Sinkin' and sinkin' and sinkin' and sinkin'
Love don't float
It's all about the ride
She said Baby let's just turn around
And find that exit we missed somehow
And I know we won't miss that sign
No, not a second time to that little town
Then we found ourselves still lost in conversation
As once again we passed out destination
And we just laughed
She Said it ain't about an exit past
A dot on the map no, that ain't where we're goin'
It ain't about the road we're on
How far we've gone as long as we keep rollin'
It's not about the path we take
Or the end of the line
It's not about us getting somewhere
As fast as we can drive
She said Baby
It's all about the ride
She said Baby get me out of here
