lyrics

I don't know where I'm headed, and I do not really care
I just want to get home soon, for my love is waiting there
And if I do not make it back, one thing I know for sure
Is I will live inside her her heart and soul forevermore
Now my exact location is a mystery to me
I'm floating here upon the ocean, lost, I'm lost at sea

I'm drifting, drifting
So many miles from shore
Feels like I've got the whole world on my shoulders

I thought about her all the time, and soon I did conclude
That several things she always did were really kind of rude
And then a thought stole in, and I began to realize
How many times I saw her turn her gaze on other guys
And some old premonition hit I feel now and again:
That while I'm drifting, she's down at the pub with other men

I'm drifting, drifting
So many miles from shore
Feels like I've got the whole world on my shoulders

So now I'll hoist the sails again and float to parts unknown
That jerk can have her booze and bros, I'm better off alone

I'm drifting, drifting
Awash forevermore
Feels like God took the whole world off my shoulders
