One Day I Slowly Floated Away

One day I slowly floated away
 One day I slowly floated away
 All the war horses wore rubber bands
 To hide their hooves from sinking sand
 The commander in charge was hoping
 That their destiny was not to die
 Wake up in the morning
 I shall wake up and so shall you
 And I wake up, the sun is beautiful
 And it is warming you and I, fragile as we lie
 Hard to foresee the future
 Our bodies are growing thin
 Glimpsing the peeling paint of
 The nurse's ivory chin
 You got a lot of nerve coming here
 Your eyes are beating rhythms way
 Faster than the speeding bullet
 That took the life of your radio
 Wake up in the morning
 I shall wake up and so shall you
 And I wake up, the sun is beautiful
 And it is warming you and I, fragile as we lie
 And in the corner of the chair
 Soft and soap-scented my darling cries apologies
 We foresee the mercy that's been shown
 My young limbs will not go unthanked or unseen
 Wake up in the morning
 I shall wake up and so shall you
 And I wake up, the sun is beautiful
 And it is warming you and I, fragile as we lie
