Love Don't Float

She said Baby get me out of here
And right then I knew just where
A little place not far away
A little less than half a day
Behind the wheel

So we left out in the pouring rain
And headed down that interstate
Tryin' to leave the clouds behind
Not knowing if we'd ever find
the sun that day

We found ourselves lost in conversation
About a hundred miles beyond our destination
And she just laughed

She Said it ain't about an exit past
A dot on the map no, that ain't where we're goin'
It ain't about the road we're on
How far we've gone as long as we keep rollin'
It's not about the path we take
Or the end of the line
It's not about us getting somewhere
As fast as we can drive
She said BabyI've been staring out the window all day
I keep seeing your ship sail away
I just read your letter last night
Now you're so far out of sight
I held a treasure in my hand
I lost it like a shell in the sand
You're out there in deep blue
My heart's there with you

There is an island
Two lovers aim for
Sailin' together
To reach that shore
You only get so many chances
You can't afford to miss the boat
Or your heart will go sinkin'
'Cause love don't float

I'll be waitin' til you throw me a line
Honey I'll know what to do this time
I'm never gonna give up hope
I wait for the boat

There is an island
Two lovers aim for
Sailin' together
To reach that shore
You only get so many chances
You can't afford to miss the boat
Or your heart will go sinkin'
'Cause love don't float

Sinkin' and sinkin' and sinkin' and sinkin'
Love don't float
It's all about the ride

She said Baby let's just turn around
And find that exit we missed somehow
And I know we won't miss that sign
No, not a second time to that little town

Then we found ourselves still lost in conversation
As once again we passed out destination
And we just laughed

She Said it ain't about an exit past
A dot on the map no, that ain't where we're goin'
It ain't about the road we're on
How far we've gone as long as we keep rollin'
It's not about the path we take
Or the end of the line
It's not about us getting somewhere
As fast as we can drive
She said Baby
It's all about the ride

She said Baby get me out of here
