Mark Knopfler, Floating Away

Mark Knopfler, Floating Away, Lyrics: It`s the weight I`m trying to get inside the frame I`ve been painting a fat man He`s big and fat and heavy as a man can be, But he`s been floating away, floating away, He`s been floating away from me. In the mirror, while skin is a thorny pleasure I stand on flinching and I mark each crease and sting My brush, my wooden fla, my ancient treasure As unforgiven time plays everything. It`s the truth I’m trying to get inside the frame Now I`m painting myself naked But I need a pair of boots about as heavy as boots can be. Or I`d be floating away, floating away, I`d be floating away from me. And every Thor sense this so down, Drifting all around and floating away, floating away, Floting away from me.
