Driftwood

Just like the driftwood of a dream

Left on the seashore of sleep

Just like the words that wouldn't rhyme

Lost in the desert of time

Time waits for no one at all

No, not even you

You thought you'd seen it all before

You really thought you knew

I don't remember what was said

In the confusion that night

I only know what's on my mind

What's in the future we will decide

Time waits for no one at all

No, not even you

You thought you'd seen it all before

You really thought you knew

I've shattered the illusion

Of fortune and of fame

But darling, now I know you

Life could never be the same

Oh no, don't leave me driftwood

On the shore

Time waits for no one, my love

No, not even you

You thought you'd seen it all before

You really thought you knew

I've shattered the illusion

Of fortune and of fame

I'm waking up

I'm reaching up

I'm getting up from this game

Oh no, don't leave me driftwood

On the shore

No, don't, don't leave me driftwood

On the shore
