It Floated

That round thing, what's it for?

Picked it up off the floor

I dropped it, then it came

Right back to where it was before

I threw it at the wall

And rolled it down the hall

I tossed it carefully to you

You threw it back to me

There was a pond in which

I'd stand beside and pitch

Just heavy things I'd find along its shore

Like rocks and bricks

I threw this new thing in

I held my breath and when

It fell, it stayed on top

Where other things had sunken in

It floated

It floated

Don't know what day it is

There's still no shaking this

The gist of what I'm saying is

This heaviness will lift

But as the time goes by

I kind of realize

That heavy is and heavy does

As heavy multiplies

We floated

We floated

We floated

We floated
