Tori Amos:Floating City

You went away, why did you leave me, you know I believed you
Nothing explained, where are the answers, I know I need you
Tell me is your city paved with gold?
Is there hunger? Do your people grow old?
Do your governments have secrets that they've sold?

Every night I wait
Take me away
To your floating city
By my window at night
I see the lights
To your floating city
Come and take me away
I want to play
In your floating city
Floating city

TV turns off any of us that say that we've seen you
Tell me are we the only planet that can't conceive you
Will we be like Atlantis long ago?
So assured that we're advanced with what we know
That our spirit never had time to grow?

Every night I wait
Take me away
To your floating city
By my window at night
I see the lights
To your floating city
Come and take me away
I want to play
In your floating city
Floating city

Is it weak to look for saviours out in space?
Little Earth she tries so hard to change our ways
Sometimes she must get sick of this place

Every night I wait
Take me away
To your floating city
By my window at night
I see the lights
To your floating city
Come and take me away
I want to play
In your floating city
Floating city

Every night I wait
Take me away
To your floating city
By my window at night
I see the lights
To your floating city
Come and take me away
I want to play
In your floating city
Floating city
