Mental As Anything — Float Away lyrics

Lyrics

I came straight home
For a change
Without drinking
In bars 'til I could hardly stand
I came straight on home
For a change
Without thinking
I could find you moist in the arms of another man
I felt so empty that I thought I’d float away
I never thought that I would ever hear you say
«You can’t stay here any more, I don’t want you any more
'Cause I found somebody else to love»
I came straight home
For a change
Without talking
To every girl that came my way
I came straight on home
For a change
Without walking
Through every door that looked okay
I felt so empty that I thought I’d float away
I never thought that I would ever hear you say
«You can’t stay here any more, I don’t want you any more»
You paid me back, in kind
For spending so many lonely nights and days
I would go back in time
If you would change your mind
Invite me back to stay with you
I came straight home
For a change
Without drinking
In bars 'til I could hardly stand
I came straight on home
For a change
Without thinking
I could find you moist in the arms of another man
I felt so empty that I thought I’d float away
I never thought that I would ever hear you say
«You can’t stay here any more, I don’t want you any more
'Cause I found somebody else to love»
To love
