I have drifted
Searching for a love
I have never found
To find the one that loves you
Is the hardest conquest
You may ever have known
Drifting, drifting, drifting
I have drifted so close to you
To find a true love in you
Drifting, drifting, drifting
As fate has cast me to and fro
I am jubilant to have crossed
Your gentle, delicate ways
May I go now
Not knowing if you fell in love
After our two ships passed in the night
Drifting, drifting, drifting
I have drifted so close to you
To find a true love in you
Drifting, drifting, drifting
I have been betrayed once too often
By my own courage
I had wielded so freely
Did the sun that shone so brightly
Hide behind those cold shadowing clouds
Darkening my judgement of you and me
Drifting, drifting, drifting
I have drifted so close to you
To find no true love in you at all
Drifting, drifting, drifting
Just maybe some celestial God
Has draped its cloak
Upon my better judgement again
Not giving me any answers
But opening this endless ocean corridor
To downdraft, searchingly
