Drift Away Lyrics

If I go to the start

Those golden memories

Before it fell apart

When you were part of me

Sometimes I dream of it

Or lie awake at night

Just for the thrill of it

Remember what it's like

To feel important in your eyes

Before the passion had to die

Now we both live our separate lives

The deeper side could not survive

I've tried to save a piece of us

Maybe I will, with any luck

No, I don't want you to go

I'm really scared that

One day you'll be someone I used to know

'Cause it hurts my soul

To see you drift away

Today you're someone that I used to love

But we lost control

Can we find another way?

I know that you're still here now

Oh my dear friend

And I just can't bear

Thinking about the end

One day you'll be someone I used to know

And it hurts my soul

To see you drift away

One night at twelve o'clock

You turned and said to me

We don't talk anymore

We're not what we used to be

You know it makes me sad

That we are not as close

After all the times we had

I hope the curtains haven't closed

I was important in your eyes

Before the passion had to die

Now we both live our separate lives

The deeper side could not survive

I've tried to save a piece of us

Maybe I will, with any luck

No, I don't want you to go

I'm really scared that

One day you'll be someone I used to know

'Cause it hurts my soul

To see you drift away

Today you're someone that I used to love

But we lost control

Can we find another way?

I know that you're still here now

Oh my dear friend

And I just can't bear

Thinking about the end

One day you'll be someone I used to know

And it hurts my soul

To see you drift away
