Lyrics Driftwood - Paul Williams

Driftwood

Like a sailor
Too far from the sea
I’m homesick when I’m home
But I don’t know where it is I’d like to be
I am driftwood
Washed upon the shore
Once a lover of the tides
But I don’t think I can take that anymore
I am becalmed by too many years of dissonance and solitude
But harmony and love can move my soul
It moves my soul
We are footprints
Quickly washed away
So the man has come and gone
But the love and light we feel is left to stay
Yes the man has come and gone
But the love and light he felt is left to stay
We are becalmed by too many years of dissonance and solitude
But harmony and love can move our souls
It moves our souls
Like a sailor
Too far from the sea
I’m homesick when I’m home
But I don’t know where it is I’d like to be
I am driftwood
