Floating Through This World Songtext
von Eric Johnson

I′m chasing a watermark
That hangs on a window seal
Like a drop of the sun on a trail, alone
I'm searching the afternoon
And sit by a flower that bloom
All of my cross to bear have gone home

An′ what a romantic am I
But I see that in you
You're full of hope, big as the sky
And it flows through you and I

I go round and round
Sometimes, not a single sound
Though I put it down to life
And I, I'm just floating through this world

We live with the love we make
But we put the world at stake
′Cause, why does the truth sometimes just fade?
Ooh-yeah


Now we got a lovely start
But leaving a question mark
To gamble the wind another day (another day)

Is not as simple as it seems
What a fool have I been
To tend the garden of my dreams
While I′m passing by

And I, I'm between me and you
Separate souls are falling through
All the safety nets, and I
I′m just floating through this world

Ooh-oh-oh
I'm floating

Like a mountaineer am I
But I do look back
To bear the tears as we climb by
On our different tracks

And I, I′m in love with where I've come
′Cause I feel the peace that might be ours
In a future day, and I
Won't be floating through this world
