Float Away

Wandering the halls alone    
   Barefoot & lost    
but only for a moment    
   
Down  
   in the  
catacombs    
  Barefoot & Lost    
I fear    
    the floodgates    
Will be opened    
   
     Float away, float away    
        & I will be there    
   
Brought here by a younger man    
who is worried about the cost    
Of retracing all my steps    
to recover what I've lost    
   
Reaching out;    
   To share    
with you this torment    
 of being left alone    
Caught up in the moment    
   
       Float away, float away;    
          Can you be there?    
   
You cannot repay me    
for all my sacrifice    
For, you have betrayed me    
with all your bad advice    
Now,    
I seem to be confused    
as to where I can get in    
Though I feel your rhythm;    
      Through the echoes    
of where you've been    
   
         Float away, float away;    
         Will you be there?    
   
 I see a young girl    
& her child    
   I seem    
to make them smile    
Because I'm barefoot    
& I'm lost    
With many bridges    
     to be crossed    
   
   I am barefoot    
& I am lost    
tho I do not feel afraid    
For the melodies    
of my heart    
Escort me through    
this escapade    
   
         Float away, float away;    
     Soon we'll be there...
