Floating (Jape cover) Lyrics

We took our first pill and the music was shit
I said 'fuck dancing all night' but then that's just what you do

It felt like floating
It felt like floating
It felt floating

The party was warm and I lay by your side
I said 'I'm glad I have found you, I'm glad we're alive'
It feels like floating, it feels like floating, it feels like floating

We lay by a river and looked at the stars
I said 'how tiny we are, girl, how tiny we are'
It feels like floating, it feels like floating, it feels like floating

Lifetime is short, girl, and death is so long
I don't believe in no heaven, I just know that I'm gone
It feels like floating, it feels like floating, it feels like floating

Been looking so long and I don't understand
Because it makes much more sense with my hands in your hands
It feels like floating, it feels like floating, it feels like floating
It feels like floating, it feels like floating, it feels like floating
It feels like floating, it feels like floating, it feels like floating

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This a Raconteurs song? Where is it found? It sounds like an ecstacy experience.

I have found a couple clips on Youtube but have never seen them perform the whole song.

I think they perform it as a excuse for a face melting Jack White guitar solo.
