Name: Floating Free
Duration: P00H05M09S
Description: My amazingly talented brother, Mark, helped me record this song in the mid '80s, and even though the years have been hard on the cassette tape, I didn't want to lose his fabulous keyboard riff toward the middle of the selection. So this is the original recording with a few tweaks to deal with pops and hisses.

lyrics

Floating Free

Above the earth I'm floating free
Without constraints, no gravity

Above the earth I clearly see
The ocean blue, the greenery

There's no sideways, up, or down
Roll, yaw, pitch and spin around

One hundred and fifty five pounds
As light as wind-blown coffee grounds
Almost as free as solar wind
I am a sunbeam I pretend

Sunrise, sunset, race the moon
Accelerated time will end to soon, end to soon

Today the heavens opened wide
To take this ship and me inside

I wish that you could come with me
And live the dream, and live the dream
And live the dream, of floating free

by: William M. Lambdin -1984-

William Morris (aka Lanny) Lambdin Amherst, Virginia
