I didn´t know that you´d be leavin´
Or who you thought you were talkin´ to.
I figure maybe we´re even
Or maybe I´m one up on you.

I send you all my money
Just like I did before.
I tried to reach you honey,
But you´re driftin´ too far from shore.

Driftin´ too far from shore
Driftin´ too far from shore
Driftin´ too far from shore
Driftin´ too far from shore

I ain´t gonna get lost in this current,
I don´t like playing cat and mouse.
No gentleman likes making love to a servant.
Especially when he´s in his father´s house.

I never could guess your weight, baby,
Never needed to call you my whore.
I always thought you were straight, baby,

But you´re driftin´ too far from shore.

Driftin´ too far from shore
Driftin´ too far from shore
Driftin´ too far from shore
Driftin´ too far from shore

Well these times and these tunnels are haunted,
The bottom of the barrel is too.
I waited years sometimes for what I wanted.
Everybody can´t be as lucky as you.

Never no more do I wonder,
Why you don´t never play with me any more.
At any moment you could go under,
´Cause you´re driftin´ too far from shore.

Driftin´ too far from shore

Driftin´ too far from shore
Driftin´ too far from shore
Driftin´ too far from shore

You and me we had completeness,
I give you all of what I could provide
We weren´t on the wrong side, sweetness,
We were the wrong side.

I´ve already ripped out the phones, honey.
You can´t walk the streets in a war.
I can finish this alone, honey,
You´re driftin´ too far from shore.
