One Day I Slowly Floated Away - Eisley

One day I-I slowly floated away

One day I-I slowly floated away

All the war horses wore rubber bands

To hide their hooves from sinking sand

The commander in charge was hoping that

Their destiny was not to die

Wake up in the morning

I shall wake up, and so shall you

And I wake up, the sun is beautiful

And it is warming you and I

Fragile as we lie

Hard to foresee the future

Our bodies are growing thin

Glimpsing the peeling paint of

The nurse’s ivory chin

You got a lot of nerve coming here

Your eyes are beating rhythms

Way faster than the speeding bullet

That took the life of your radio

Wake up in the morning

I shall wake up, and so shall you

And I wake up, the sun is beautiful

And it is warming you and I

Fragile as we lie

And in the corner chair

Soft and soap-scented

My darling cries apologies

We foresee the mercy

That’s been shown my young limbs

Will not go unthanked or unseen

Wake up in the morning

I shall wake up, and so shall you

And I wake up, the sun is beautiful

And it is warming you and I

Fragile as we lie

Ooh, ah

Ooh, ah
