Lyrics

Drift

Written by: Brad Shaw / The Silent Partner

VERSE 1
The sun comes up steaming in the eastern skies and settles back down in the west where I live my life and I find out how fast time flies.

But if I could have just a moment, one moment to choose
The way that I'd spend it and the things that I'd do…I would spend it with you.

CHORUS
I can't keep up with all this (even if I try)
So I'll just drift, blow you a kiss so long and goodbye

VERSE 2
There's some days I wake up and I wonder how it'd be if I had lots of money
A car, a home in the hills maybe and if it's really me

Still I have to ask myself who's got the better gig in life – I guess we choose
The one who's afraid to lose it all or those of us who've got nothing to lose.

Cause I don't really want to live my life until my dying day
Struggling to get the next dollar, the next thing anyway
It's not worth my time

CHORUS
I can't keep up with all this (even if I try)
So I'll just drift, blow you a kiss so long and goodbye

(Harmonica Solo)

VERSE 3
Every now and then I start to wonder about the meaning
Of it all and I lose heart and start to get the feeling that things won't turn out right

But then I stop to think about the way everything turns and works
And the people that I've love, lost and hurt
And I know it'll be alright

Again I say life's too short not to realize what you've got
And it's too long to linger on the things that you've lost
Love everybody and let 'em love

CHORUS
I can't keep up with all this (even if I try)
So I'll just drift, blow you a kiss so long and goodbye
Stay right here and let me feel you are mine
Sit right here and let me feel that I am yours
