lyrics

DRIFTING AT SEA

August Winds a-blowing
Gust through my door
It might as well be snowing
You're not here any more

Into the desert you've taken
A sweet heart of me
Please be careful don't break it
I'm drifting at sea

It's lonely here without you
Getting too dark for me
No idea how much I'd miss you
A-drifting at sea

And so this picture is painted
In light pinks and blues
And for the dawn I am waiting
A sunrise of you

Oh say hello to the stars
Sing a sweet melody
And I will listen while drifting
A drifting at sea

It's lonely here without you
Getting too dark for me
No idea how much I'd miss you
A-drifting at sea

Your love's a wave that keeps me from breaking
and washing up as debris
Without you I can't' find my way in
A-drifting at sea
