Drift Away

[Intro] In a starlit sky You're high above the light And I drift away For days And weeks and months in life [Chorus] And you're by my bedside In the creeks where your ashes lie And you're by my bedside In the creeks where your ashes lie [Verse] And the birds On Howe Street caw For all the good times gone And you're drunk in the bath You'd drawn To sink and dream alone [Chorus] And you're by my bedside In the creeks where your ashes lie And you're by my bedside In the creeks where your ashes lie [Outro] And Elaine's in the yard Playing cards But no one ever comes Someday you'll run out 'Cause the clocks are ticking underground
