Lyrics Tim Buckley

Tim Buckley

Driftin'

When there's wine in your belly, love rhythm's on your tongue

For you are a woman and each man has been too young

But for me you were a lover, gently under your cover

Your sheet reeks of odors, oh, I came here to hold and be held for a while

I've been driftin', like a dream out on the sea

I've been driftin', in between you and me

Every time I think about you, I can't remember

What I said or did was right or wrong, you know I just don't remember

All I wanna be is what you mean to me

All I wanna be is what you mean to me

Late last night, as I dreamed in dizzy sunlight

I thought I heard your bare feet up the stairs

Just like a fool, just like a fool

And I've been driftin', like a dream out on the sea

I've been driftin', in between what used to be
