Drift Away
Our mutual friends are getting married
Well I guess they were more yours than mine
Maybe one day they'll have a baby
And I'll see em round time to time
Oh the fig that I let drop
Our names inscribed on a rock
By the river that glows the color of your eyes
How I sent you away
The way the air smells in may
I go back to that river and watch our failed future drift away
Drift away
Well Mama gave birth to a cowboy
who likes poetry and mountain views
Uses religious imagery but never sits on the pew
Oh the fig that I let drop
Our names inscribed on a rock
By the river that glows the color of your eyes
How I sent you away
The way the air smells in may
I go back to that river and watch our failed future drift away
My love for you my worst kept secret
I want everyone to hear it
But never bring it up to me
Oh I'm breaking my own cover
I want them to know how I suffered
Yet I still wear the jewelry you bought me
Oh the fig that I let drop
Our names inscribed on a rock
By the river that glows the color of your eyes
How I sent you away
The way the air smells in may
I go back to that river and watch our failed future drift away
Drift Away
Well I guess they were more yours than mine
Maybe one day they'll have a baby
And I'll see em round time to time
Oh the fig that I let drop
Our names inscribed on a rock
By the river that glows the color of your eyes
How I sent you away
The way the air smells in may
I go back to that river and watch our failed future drift away
Drift away
Well Mama gave birth to a cowboy
who likes poetry and mountain views
Uses religious imagery but never sits on the pew
Oh the fig that I let drop
Our names inscribed on a rock
By the river that glows the color of your eyes
How I sent you away
The way the air smells in may
I go back to that river and watch our failed future drift away
My love for you my worst kept secret
I want everyone to hear it
But never bring it up to me
Oh I'm breaking my own cover
I want them to know how I suffered
Yet I still wear the jewelry you bought me
Oh the fig that I let drop
Our names inscribed on a rock
By the river that glows the color of your eyes
How I sent you away
The way the air smells in may
I go back to that river and watch our failed future drift away
Drift Away
