Written by Peter Green.
I ain't never missed a woman
Anytime or anyhow
I ain't never missed a woman
Anytime or anyhow
I ain't never missed a woman
Oh, just like the way I miss my baby now

Drifting, drifting, drifting away.
I got myself a mansion, then I gave it away.
It's not the world that's heavy, just the things that you save.
And I'm drifting, drifting away.
Drifting, drifting, drifting along.
I rid myself of worries, and the worries were gone.
I only run when I want to and I sleep like a dog.
I'm just drifting, drifting along.
The suitcoats say, "There is money to be made."
They get so damn excited, but I guess it's their way.
My road it may be lonely just because it's not paved.
It's good for drifting, drifting away.
The suitcoats say, "There is money to be made."
They get so damn excited, nothing gets in their way
My road it may be lonely just because it's not paved.
It's good for drifting, drifting away.
Drifting, drifting, drifting, uh huh.
I feel like going back there, but never for long.
I sometimes wonder if they know that I'm gone.
I'm just drifting, drifting along.
Drifting, drifting along. Drifting, drifting along.

I see your eyes drifting, drifting
I'm really not that naive
You wear a smile but it's drifting, drifting
While I wear my heart on my sleeve
I feel your coldness against my skin
I know what follows the autumn wind
And though you say your heart isn't drifting, drifting
The words simply don't ring true

Drifting
On a sea of forgotten teardrops
On a lifeboat
Sailing for
Your love
Sailing home
Drifting
On a sea of old heartbreaks
On a lifeboat
Sailing for
Your love

You've been gone so long all that you know
has been shuffled aside as you bask in the glow
of the beautiful strangers who whisper your name
do they fill up the emptiness?
Larger than life is your fiction
In a universe made up of one
You have been drifting for so long
I know you don't want to come down
Somewhere below you, there's people who love you
And they're ready for you to come home
Please come home
You walk in a room and the world stops to stare
Mesmerize all who are caught in the glare
Of the spotlight that follows wherever you go
Does it light up the emptiness?
Larger than life is your fiction
In a universe made up of one
You have been drifting for so long
I know you don't want to come down
Somewhere below you, there's people who love you
And they're ready for you to come home

When I look into your eyes
I can see
Such a sad man in disguise
Dreaming, wishing, waiting, drifting from me
Oh I can see
Hurts my heart to see you cry
Dreaming, wishing, waiting, drifting from me
I don't know you anymore
Wish I knew what's wrong
Can't we try to slam that door
start a brand new song
now...
I know you're lonely and you cry
wondering why
I know it's lonely but if once
You could help me understand
What it takes to be a man
Look back on what you've said
and the life you've led
Is it what you dreamed when you were young like me...
ha ha ha
Now it's time
You took something back
just for the sake of your mind
just for the sake of your mind
just for the sake of your mind
When I look into your eyes
I can see
Life has buried you alive
Dreaming, wishing, waiting, drifting from me
You can't breathe
Hurts my heart to see you cry

[Instrumental]

Sometimes when I'm all alone
I don't know if I can take another breath
Some say home is where the heart is
Tell me where my home is 'cause I'm scared to death
Falling from the rooftop, crashing like a raindrop
Can you make my heart stop shaking like a leaf?
Standing at the floodgate, steady as an earthquake
Can you hear my heart break tearing at the seams?
I am drifting in the deep end
Holding on to your hand is all that saves me now
Life can treat you like a beggar
You hold me together, but I don't know how
Falling from the rooftop, crashing like a raindrop
Can you make my heart stop shaking like a leaf?
Standing at the floodgate, steady as an earthquake
Can you hear my heart break tearing at the seams?
Some say home is where the heart is
And my heart is in your hands, you are all I need
Rising from the ashes, lifted from the madness
Now you see my heart is deep enough to dream
Heal me from the deathblow, lead and I will follow
Now you feel my heart glow mending at the seams
I am drifting in the deep end
I am drifting in the deep end
Rising from the ashes, lifted from the madness
Now you see my heart is deep enough to dream
Heal me from the deathblow, lead and I will follow
Now you feel my heart glow mending at the seams
Rising from the ashes, lifted from the madness
Now you see my heart is deep enough to dream
Heal me from the deathblow, lead and I will follow
Now you feel my heart glow mending at the seams
I am drifting in the deep end
I am drifting in the deep end

Drifting away from you
Spinning down to the pinpoint drop of isolation
In a spell
Walking away from the fire
That keeps my heart
From turning ice
Golden feet grace the surface of the sea
Sinking deeper I view them from underneath
Flailing, kicking as I head for the deep
I question a hypothetical lead supper
Oh God receive my outstretched hand
Will I inhale the blue
Spinning down upon the glass
A ghost towards realisation of a cell
Enclosing the hauntings of a past
That blind the eyes
And rust the heart
So I fell
I need you to take my hand

Mother Mary, feel me prevail...
you're not anything at all
drifting, fading, clean, sharp detail...
you're not anything at all
stationary, vivid and clear...
you're not anything at all
mother Mary, save your tears...
I'm not anything at all
I don't think that I, I don't think that i...
can feel anything at all, and i...
mother Mary, broken and pale...
you're not anything at all
watching, waiting, withered and frail...
you're not anything at all
visionary, wasted, stagnant years...
you're not anything at all
mother Mary, silence your fears...
I'm not anything at all
mother Mary, feel me fade
hear me whisper, hear me fade
drifting, waiting, feel me fade

There's a sea of lonely
Swimming sad
Look just for
An arm to grab
I don't need to
Understand
I'm just lending you
The two that I have
You might be drifting and can't find the shore
So hopeless and all alone
The waves are crashing all around you
Just when you've lost the will to live, you see the sun
Can we make a searchlight
From all the bridges that we burn?
Do you see a rescue
Or a deeper kind of hurt?
Who could love you?
Who could hold you?
I'd swim across the sea
You don't have to be alone
Where the shallow gets so deep
You might be drifting and can't find the shore
So hopeless and all alone
The waves are crashing all around you
Just when you've lost the will to live, you see the sun
I am hurt and nearly drown
(Open up your eyes)
I cry for help, you turn around
(Open up your eyes)
Farther from the shore or you'll be farther from the shore
I am hurt and nearly drown
(You're not alone)
I cry for help, you turn around
(I'm not letting go)
Farther from the shore
So you're not farther from the shore
You might be drifting and can't find the shore
So hopeless and all alone
The waves are crashing all around you

Drifting away, to the place where I belong
I see the night transforming into dawn
Tonight I sleep beside you for the last time
Make sure that you won't hear me leave
Slipping away, into the endless sleep
Silent tears running down my cheeks
No matter where the winds of life may lead you

Flowers growing all around me
Making colors fade to grey I believe I'm going crazy
If it's the day I'll die won't you spread my ashes over
The exploding sky I'm gonna break this rusty cage of
mine
Speeding fast I'm rolling lost in a daze
Begging for peace of my mind
It's so easy to slip into wicked ways
I'm drifting, color-blind
Well does it matter where I go, tomorrow
I don't know what to find
Cause when the day is done
I watch another sunset burning red
Until the morning comes
I hear the howling wolves inside my head
Drifting- drifting
Follow nowhere, what you seek
Is way beyond forever
You gotta give if you will reach
Any higher, do you dare
To leave it all behind
Cause I can make it anywhere
Yeah I'm drifting in time
I expect no tomorrow
Yeah I am drifting in mind
I could still be alive
How come I can see thou' I'm blind
Am I sleeping, I don't know
No need to erase and rewind

We believe always
But feelings never change
Fall against my pain
But I'm feeling the same
So don't you move away
When I need you to stay
Don't you know I'll keep
The things you give away
It's so hard to find a reason maybe
You're still waiting
On nothing I wonder
Why I'm still chasing
What's pushing me under
And I keep drifting
But inside I'll say
And I keep wishing
Soon I'll fly away
And I keep dreaming
Of things you used to say
And I keep drifting
And soon I'll fly away
So open up my eyes
To what your heart can't see
Cause don't you know your love
Gets the better of me
And everything you tried
Is sliding under me
When everything you hide
Are things I'll never see
It's so hard to find a reason maybe
You're still waiting
On nothing I wonder
Why I'm still chasing
What's pushing me under
And I keep drifting
But inside I'll say
And I keep wishing
Soon I'll fly away
And I keep dreaming
Of things you used to say
And I keep drifting
And soon I'll fly away
It's so hard to find a reason maybe
You're still waiting
On nothing I wonder
Why I'm still chasing
And I keep drifting
But inside I'll say
And I keep wishing
Soon I'll fly away
And I keep dreaming
Of things you used to say
And I keep drifting

With your wild, call the pace
Taste the tracks of the waste
With your wild, with your sweet
With your cold black-eyed teeth
I close my eyes and I pray, yes I pray
Let it slide, let it slide
Ignore me and everything I've done
For I am stupid, I am poison
I take this one and I taste the tracks
I taste the tracks of the waste in my head
And you face me instead
I must be drifting somewhere
I held in my hand but it's hard
So hard to see reason
The burning is here
Is only here to follow through
But here it is harder than a screaming fist and I hate it
It's dark behind your smile and I can follow through
Let it slide, let it slide
Ignore me and everything I've done
For words, like bullets they know when to come
And taste the tracks, and taste the tracks
Of the waste in my head and you face me instead
Well, ignore me and everything I said
For I am stupid, I am poison
I held in my hand but it's hard
So hard to see reason
It's dark behind your smile
And I can follow through
I close my eyes and I pray, yes I pray
With your wild, call the pace
Taste the track of the waste
With your wild, with your sweet

The fear of looking inside
The pain of my life
The memories are so real
The scars grow so deep
The pain of my life
The shame that I feel
Crying, all colours fade to grey
Drowning in tears I fade away
Away from the light
The pain of my life
The shame that I feel
Crying, all colours fade to grey
Drowning in tears I fade away
The essence of innerself
Horrors burn my eyes
So real... the pain inside
Falling... I'm drifting away
Falling... Drifting away
Away from the sun
Falling... Drifting away

What a wonderful hesitation
who would bear to feel sorry for me
dropped another pill just to calm me
collapsed to my knees and fell fast into sleep
there I was drifting
way out into the sunshine
expecting to crash but I'm tied to a string
look at me I'm a tangled puppet
I might be a mess but I'm sure can survive
find myself awake counting sad days
1-2-3 that's too many for me
dropped another pill just to find me
reached for my hand but it was already there
then I started believin'
that I fell out of a tiny raindrop
that lost its way when I decided to roam
chasing me was a hungry dweller
but I had escaped it by pretending to die
come follow me you won't expect the illusion
you'll see it's my imagination
hand me your eyes
I will put them in front of mine
you'll see a little better
you'll see a little better
what a wonderful destination
where I am now
I can no longer see
dropped another pill just to kill me
collapsed to my knees and fell fast into sleep
there I was drifting
way out into the sunshine
expecting to crash but I'm tied to a string
look at me I'm a tangled puppet
I might be a mess but I'm sure can survive
but I had escaped it by pretending to die

I.... I feel the breeze on my face today,
and all of the songs, with the bombs on the tip of my tongue
see them finally melt away
she's on my mind, I ain't got the time
for floating & drifting along with the tide, just a castaway
I.... I feel the wind on my heels tonight
let everything change to be here once again
because everyone knows that we're gonna be totally free tonight
she's on my mind, I ain't got the time
for floating & drifting along with the tide, just a castaway
So how, how did we ever come this way?
Take another pill wash it down with something
you might read today, and meditate on this....
You're just another fish swimming round up & down in the dark –gasping for air,
always escaping the one who wants to eat you
now rise to the surface, break through the water
take a look around, listen to the sound
and for the very first time, reach to the sky

(Verse)
I've been drifting,
For years at sea.
But now, you've come along,
to rescue me.
(chorus)
And the fog is lifted,
We got the moon and the stars above.
(Verse)
Since you came along, (love, love, love)
I'm back where I belong.
(love, love, love)
Since you rescued me,
(love, love, love)
The whole world is there to see.
And the storm has lifted.
We've got the moon and stars above..
(Verse)
In Mornin'
It's plain to see.
Smell coffee in the air.
You're here with me.
I'm walkin' down the street.(love, love, love)
The sun beams down. (love, love, love)
The grass is cool beneath my feet.
My head is spinnin' round and round'
And the storm has lifted.
We've got the moon and stars above.

It's all in your hands now
you can take it anywhere
there's a whisper in your ear love
that keeps you constantly prepared
every night you know that you will
wake up still alone
your mind's a dial tone
all your thoughts are spent
on getting yourself back up again
we both know
you know me better than anyone
do you believe in me?
[Chorus:]
Cause we're drifting away
out to the sea
can you help me find my way?
give me the melody
show me anything
that my eyes forgot to see
show me everything
show me anything
I look to the ocean waves
to pull me in and take me away
I never thought it'd be
so easy to say
that we both know
you know me better than anyone
do you believe in me?
[Chorus]
You know me better than anyone
just take my hands we'll runaway
(runaway, runaway darling)
(runaway, get the hell out of here)
Oh baby

Out of time, out of place
I don't want you to see my face
Scarred and bruised
Tired and used
Sometimes when I think of you
Choking on memories
Wishing we were still at ease
I'm not running, I'm not hiding
I'm not trying to escape
I'm drifting away
Drifting away
Drifting away
You say these are changing times
You don't know what we will find
Maybe love, maybe death
I keep running out of breath
I'm drifting away
Drifting away
Drifting away
I cannot see the shore
I don't know where I am anymore
I am not leaving
I'm just drifting away
Drifting away
Drifting away
I'm only drifting (x3)

How can I keep from straying
It? s an easy one, it? s a simple thing
Nothing can keep me from dragging my feet
It? s a choice I was given, choice I received
When we finally stop dragging our feet
It? s a choice we surrender to gain everything
When I walk into a room full of fire
Naturally I want to burn such a human desire
I know you well, as well as you know me
It? s still an easy one, it? s still a simple thing
I know it's skin and bones
But I want more for my body
I want more, I want more
Nothing can keep me from dragging my feet
It? s a choice I was given, choice I received
When we finally stop dragging our feet
It? s a choice we surrender to gain everything
When I walk into a room full of fire
Naturally I want to burn such a human desire
I know it's skin and bones
But I want more for my body
I want more, I want more
I want more for my body
I want more
I know you well, as well as you know me
Nothing can keep me from dragging my feet
It? s a choice I was given, choice I received
When we finally stop dragging our feet
It? s a choice we surrender to gain everything
When I walk into a room full of fire

Consumption of life, mankind's ritual throughout time.
At our planet's demise, we won't find shelter in the sky.
Helpless... infected... home.
Lost... drifting... alone.
When the horsemen ride, to destroy the race they despise.
When the future dies,
There is no miracle we can try.
Helpless, infected, home.
Lost, drifting, alone, all alone.

So here I am close to these windows,
watching those eyes just for a frame,
feeling I can't stand that reflection,
while everything flies into flames.
Thank you my friends for giving me kindness,
for understanding what I need,
forgetting you will be not so hard.
All that remains.
All that remains.
And here's to you your beloved ghost.
The things I've seen in me are lost.
Dear lovers you... you know who I am,
thank you for having killed me so gently,
for all the tears I cannot cry.
All that remains is just a fool
who talks with monsters you don't see.
All that remains is just "bare wisdom".
I beg you tell me silent words
'cause every time I close my eyes
a scary light denies my sleep
and a well-known terror suffocates me.
So please I beg you let me fade
giving me your warm lost hand to hold on to.
All that remains is just sleep.
All that remains.
