Written about the highs and lows of a long-term relationship I had with an extraordinary girl and I suppose woman now of 5 years. She taught me a lot about myself, about people and to not take life too seriously.
Thank you Holly.
lyrics
Let it all float away, let it all float away
Release it from your mind.
Let it all float away, let it all float away
Release it from your mind.
You always knew what it meant, to be free, you always knew what you meant to me.
You always knew what it meant to be free, you always knew what you meant to me.
Even though we'd fight, you'd learn and you'd expand.
Even for the parts of me you'll never understand.
We made it through the worst and the best of it, well I'll be damned.
You never walk away from those who try to lend their hand.
You always knew what it meant, to be free, you always knew what you meant to me.
Let it all float away, let it all float away
Release it from your mind.
Let it all float away, let it all float away
Release it from your mind.
You always knew what it meant, to be free, you always knew what you meant to me.
You always knew what it meant, to be free, you always knew what you meant to me.
We'd stare into the sky and watch our problems float away.
The struggle in our life carry no weight above today.
There's always someone better, worse or more adverse but not to you.
If only people knew exactly what they were to do.
But you always knew what it meant, to be free, I hope you knew what you meant to me.
Let it all float away, let it all float away
Release it from your mind.
Let it all float away, let it all float away
Release it from your mind.
