Drifting

Lyrics from Live Performance

[Verse 1]

Time and space and I'm out of place

Don't recognize a single face

By now I shoulda won the race

But I haven't found a home

It seems to me if you don't catch that vine

And swing to the next tree branch in time

The years add up and you fall behind

And you're left to walk alone

[Chorus]

So I'm driftin', I'm driftin', and I'm driftin'

Yeah, I'm driftin', driftin', but I'm driftin'

Meet a stranger, tag along

Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong

Tell a story, sing a song

Lay my head where it don't belong

And somehow it occurs to me

That out here on the deep blue sеa

There are othеr people drifting too

Maybe someday, baby, I'll drift into you

Maybe someday, baby, I'll drift into you

[Verse 2]

Called my shrink the other day

Forgot what I was gonna say

So I lied and said I lost my way

'Cause I couldn't let him down

Put my leather jacket on

To play the part of bad boy John

The brokenhearted vagabond

Had wandered into town

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm driftin', I'm driftin', and I'm driftin'

Yeah, I'm driftin', and driftin', and driftin

Meet a stranger, tag along

Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong

Tell a story, sing a song

Lay my head where it don't belong

But somehow it occurs to me

That out here on the deep blue sea

There are other people drifting, too

Maybe someday, baby, I'll drift into you

Maybe someday, baby, I'll drift into you

[Bridge]

I live for the moment 'til the moment is gone

Lonesome is the road I'm traveling on

I go where I want and I don't miss anyone

'Cause I'm driftin'

Tryin' to write a story, but I'm stuck on a page

God, it's been so long, can't remember my age

I'm lost 'til the moment that I step on the stage

[Chorus]

'Cause I'm driftin'

And I'm driftin'

Meet a stranger, tag along

Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong

Tell a story, sing a song

Lay my head where it don't belong

Somehow it occurs to me

That out here on the deep blue sea

There are other people drifting, too

Maybe someday, baby, I'll drift into you

Maybe someday, baby, I'll drift into you

Maybe someday, baby, I'll drift into you
