[Verse 1]

Down Delaware River

I went with her

We pulled over by the silvery blue

Leather seat Chevy

Sticky and sweaty

We went swimmin' in our birthday suits

A sleepy mamasita

Thermos of margaritas

We’re never gonna make it back to New York now

Freckles on your shoulder

Get me growin' older

I gotta be holdin' on to you somehow

Before you

[Chorus]

Float away

Float away

Gone to stay

And never return

[Verse 2]

I keep an old photo

When I ride solo

Hidden away on thе driver's side

Torn and out of focus

I don't notice

'Til I was clеanin' out the van last night

Tucked away sweetly

In an old CD

Between the pages of the liner notes

How could I forget you

Like I never met you

Mama I never shoulda let you go

Let you

[Chorus]

Float away

Float away

Gone to stay

And never return

[Verse 3]

Maybe I'll see her

In an old theater

When I'm rollin' like a rolling stone

Pickin' out a new tune

Lookin round a big room

In Baton Rouge or San Anton

On a Saturday night

Underneath the spotlight

We’ll communicate a secret song

That I could never do right

Never knew the good life

Always packed up

Soon to be gone

And I just

[Chorus]

Float away

Float away

Gone to stay

And never return

Never return
