Drift Away Lyrics

Mmm... yeah

I still feel your shadow on my skin

A whisper of the love we used to live in

We built a life that time couldn't erase

But I see the cracks now etched on the face

We were perfect in a world so unkind

Two broken hearts that managed to align

But love's a fire, it needs more than air

And I watched us slip though we were so rare

I tried to keep on but you're fading fast

Every dream I had is now trapped in the past

You drift away like a song that's lost its tune

But I'm still here chasing shadows of you

You drift away, but I feel you everywhere

Each thought of you is etched into my soul

Drift away, yeah, you drift away

But I can't forget those brighter days

The photographs are torn at the edge

Faint reminders of the promises we said

I thought forever was ours to keep

But now hold your memory while I lose sleep

I see a smile in the strangers I pass

A fleeting trace on the surface of glass

I know it's over but my heart won't move

Caught in the echo of a love I can't lose

I've tried to keep on but you're fading fast

Every dream I had is now trapped in the past

You drift away like a song that's lost its tune

But I'm still here chasing shadows of you

You drift away, but I feel you everywhere

Each thought of you is etched into my soul

Drift away, yeah, you drift away

But I can't forget those brighter days

Maybe love was never meant to stay

Like waves crashing then slipping away

But I'll hold on to the pieces of us

Even if the tide leaves me in the dust

You drift away like a song that's lost its tune

But I'm still here chasing shadows of you

You drift away, but I feel you everywhere

Each thought of you is etched into my soul

Drift away, yeah, you drift away

But I can't forget those brighter days

Drift away, yeah, maybe love was never meant to stay

Like waves crashing then slipping away

But I'll hold on to the pieces of us

Even if the tide leaves me in the dust

You drift away, yeah, you drift away

But I can't forget those brighter days

You drift away, yeah, you drift away

But I can't forget those brighter days

Maybe love was never meant to stay

Like waves crashing then slipping away

But I'll hold on to the pieces of us

Even if the tide leaves me in the dust

You drift away like a song that's lost its tune

But I'm still here chasing shadows of you

You drift away, but I feel you everywhere

Each thought of you is etched into my soul

Drift away, yeah, you drift away

But I can't forget those brighter days

Like covers saying rain

Drift away, yeah, you drift away

But I'll remember us anyway, yeah

Fade away, yeah, yeah, yeah
