Baby you send me
set adrift on memory bliss of you...

It's the police afloat
in a dirty great boat
and they're shouting
"Time, gentlemen, please!"
No! No!No!

Campbeltown Loch - Scottish drinking song. I don't know the original singer; I've heard several versions.

Earth below us
Drifting, falling
Floating weightless
Calling, calling home

Bobbing along, bobbing along
On the bottom of the beautiful briny sea

Oh give me the beat boys, and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away.

Over the river and through the woods
To grandmother's house we go.
The horse knows the way to carry the sleigh
Through the white and drifting snow.

--"Over the River and Through the Woods," traditional Christmas/winter holiday song.

Now floating up and down
I spin, colliding into sound

floating in the summer sky,
ninety nine red balloons go by

Afloat, adrift
A flight, a wing
A hawk, a dove
It's the promise of spring

(Jobim, "Waters of March")

When I die let my ashes float down the Green River
Let my soul roll on up to the Rochester dam

We're cut adrift
but still floating
I'm only hanging on
to watch you go down
my love

For here
am I floating round my tin can
far above the moon
planet earth is blue and there's nothing I can do
