Adrift
There was a time when there was time to relate
When you were young and wild and sober child
But the changes make it harder, harder now
Remember when you stood your ground
When the world was full of magic
Before the changes took you further, further away
You’re drifting away too far
And one of these days you’ll be playing somebody else’s part
Can you not see you can never get far
When you’re far from who you are
You’re walking around so confident
In the middle of a circle trail
But where’s the middle of a circle anyway
You’re gonna wake up in some distant place
When you realize that you’re lost
Fool, I’ll show you the right way up to heaven
You’re drifting away too far
And one of these days you’ll be playing somebody else’s cards
Can you not see you can never get far
When you’re far from who you are
Mother I’ve changed I’ve taken the wrong way
And it doesn’t take me somewhere safe
Though I’m not afraid but why does it hurt me
When I’m drifting further away
Lay your head in my arms, cover your eyes now
And remember the way back to me
It’s not too late so turn around now
Because someday it will be
