Tori Amos
Floating City

[Verse 1]
You went away, why did you leave me?
You know I believed you
Nothing explained, where are the answers?
I know I need you
Tell me, is your city paved with gold?
Is there hunger? Do your people grow old?
Do your governments have secrets that they've sold?

[Chorus]
Every night I wait
Take me away to your floating city
By my window at night
I see the lights to your floating city
Come and take me away
I want to play in your floating city, yeah
Floating city, yeah

[Verse 2]
TV turns off any of us that
Say that we've seen you
Tell me, are we the only planet
That can't conceive you?
Will we be like the Atlantis long ago?
So sure that we're advanced with what we know
That our spirit never had time to grow
[Chorus]
Every night I wait
Take me away to your floating city
By my window at night
I see the lights to your floating city
Come and take me away, yeah
I want to play in your floating city, yeah
Floating city, yeah, hey

[Verse 3]
Is it weak to look for saviors out in space?
Little Earth, she tries so hard to change our ways
Sometimes she must get sick of this place

[Chorus]
Every night I wait
Take me away to your floating city
By my window at night
Oh, I see the lights to your floating city
Come and take me away
'Cause I want to play in your floating city, yeah
Floating city
Every night I wait (Oh, oh, oh)
Take me away to your floating city (Oh, oh, oh, oh)
By my window at night (Oh, oh, oh)
I see the lights to your floating city (I see, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Come and take me away (Oh, oh, oh)
'Cause I want to play in your floating city, yeah
Floating city, yeah
[Outro]
Oh, come around
Oh, come around
Oh
