One Day I Slowly Floated Away

One day I slowly floated away

One day 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

The 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 were growing thin

Glimpsing the peeling paint of

The nurse's ivory chain

You've 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



oooh, ahhhhh

oooh, ahhhhh
