lyrics

Drift

Sitting in the coffee shop at midnight
When they closed we left like we were friends
You were shaking when you asked
If we could make this last and I thought
“I don’t really know if this is right”

Snow was sticking to your coat
Take a chance, take it slow
You said you’d go anywhere at all, but
Anywhere at all meant you’d mean it for a while
And slowly drift away in the fall

I know it’s been a few long months
There are things that I’ll no longer tell but
I’m still finding reasons to figure you out
Because I don’t understand myself

Sitting on the porch again at midnight
Too late to find a place where we’d agree
Even when we tried we were wind and firelight
So you drifted far away from me

I know it’s been a few long months
There are things that I’ll no longer tell but
I’m still finding reasons to figure you out
Because I don’t understand myself

Summer days are drifting in and out now
And I’m running out of time to comprehend
The way we wander round these same old roads
And still can’t seem to make amends

I know it’s been a few long months
There are things that I’ll no longer tell but
I’m still finding reasons to figure you out
Because I don’t understand and

I know it’s time to face this life
And take some time to figure it out cause
How can I explain the ways of someone else
When I don’t understand myself?
