Drifitin'
John Mayer
Time and space, little out of place
Don’t recognize a single face
By now I shoulda won the race
But I haven’t found a home
Seems to me if you don’t catch that vine
And swing to the next tree branch in time
The years add up and you fall behind
And you’re left to walk alone
So, I’m driftin, driftin, and I’m driftin
And I’m driftin, and I’m driftin, and I’m driftin
Meet a stranger, tag along
Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong
Tell the story, sing a song
Lay my head where it don’t belong
And some how it occurs to me, that out here on the deep blue sea
There are other people driftin too
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
Called my shrink the other day
Forgot what I was gonna say
So I lied and said I lost my way
Cause I couldn’t let him down
Put my leather jacket on
To play the part of bad boy John
The broken-hearted vagabond
Had wandered into town
Cause I’m driftin, I’m driftin, and I’m driftin
Yeah I’m driftin, and driftin, and driftin
Meet a stranger, tag along
Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong
Tell the story, sing a song
Lay my head where it don’t belong
And some how it occurs to me, that out here on the deep blue sea
There are other people driftin too
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
Wait for a moment ‘til the moment is gone
Lonesome is the road I’ve been travelin on
I go where I want and I won’t miss anyone
Cause I’m driftin
I’m tryin to write a story but I’m stuck on the page
God it’s been so long can’t remember my age
I’m lost til the moment that I step on the stage
Cause I’m driftin
And I’m driftin
Meet a stranger, tag along
Maybe smoke a cigarette all wrong
Tell the story, sing a song
Lay my head where it don’t belong
And some how it occurs to me, that out here on the deep blue sea
There are other people driftin too
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
Maybe someday, baby I’ll drift into you
