Did you really mean to ask: Why text2 is *not* positioned on the right
of text1?
If so, then the answer is that a float can not move upwards past the
bottom of in-flow (non-floating and not-absolute-positioned) elements
placed before it in the source-code.
This means the floating 'text2' isn't allowed to go higher than bottom
of the non-floating 'text1', and the vertical space between them is
equal to 'margin-bottom of text1' + 'margin-top of text2'.
Size (dimensions) of text1 - the fact that there's plenty of empty space
available to the right of text1 - doesn't matter.
Declare text1 as a float, and text2 can move up alongside of it.
If you mean to ask something else about float-behavior, then you'll have
to ask again - a bit clearer.
regards
Georg
