Girls Just Want to Float Away

Lyrics

Neighbors at the window againTalking like the news came inEverybody knows my nameBut nobody gets the story straight

Porch lights, cheap wineSmall town, big liesSame old faces making scenesLike they're still seventeen

Too much smoke in the summer airToo many smiles that don't play fairThey love to talk when the tide gets lowBut we already know

Girls just wanna float awayFind a little peace out on the bayLet the waves calm the drama downWe don't need that noise around

Pour it up, let the moonlight showWho's been real and who's just for showThey can keep that mess on shoreWe ain't sinking with them anymore

He said forever real sweetThen made forever look cheapPretty words, empty soulWanted love he could control

And all the boys downtownStill running wild, still acting proudBut real love don't competeIt don't beg and it don't cheat

Too many whispers dock to dockToo many hands trying to stir the potBut truth comes out when the night moves slowAnd baby, karma knows

Girls just wanna float awayFind a little peace out on the bayLet the waves calm the drama downWe don't need that noise around

Pour it up, let the moonlight showWho's been real and who's just for showThey can keep that mess on shoreWe ain't sinking with them anymore

Let them talk, let them stareWe got warm wind in our hairNo more tears for foolish gamesWe washed all that hurt away

Love don't lie, love don't chaseLove don't need a hiding placeIf it's heavy, let it goWatch it drift out with the smoke

Girls just wanna float awayUnderneath the stars, we're okayMusic low and the water goldFree hearts don't do control

Pour it up, let the whole night glowWe found peace where the river flowsThey can keep that mess on shoreWe ain't sinking with them anymore

Float awayFloat awayNo more drama on the shoreWe ain't sinking anymore
