The Drifter lyrics
Song information
Artist: Neil Diamond Album: On The Way To The Sky
Lyrics
Written by: neil diamond
Well, I am the drifter I walk the highways I cross the river That rolls on forgotten
I sing for the living Live for the trying But what's it about If you got to be trying alone
And I'm the dreamer Who climbed the mountain Who saw forever Across the ocean
But you found me waiting And knew that I would Be lost forever I kept on trying alone
They call me the drifter And I walk the highways I crossed every river That rolled on forgotten
I'd sing for the living But inside was dying 'Cause what's it about If you got to be trying alone
Well, I'm the drifter Who solved the answer And when I found you I knew for ever Would be for ever And not for some time And you'd be mine Won't have to be trying alone
Now I sing like a dreamer And I walk like I'm flying I looked in your eyes There was no use denying You cared for that moment And I knew the answer I came for a while And I stayed for the rest of my life I came for a while And I stayed for the rest of my life I came for a while And I stayed for the rest of my life
Well, I was the drifter And I walked the highways I crossed every river That rolled on forgotten
I sang for the living And lived for the trying I came for a while And I stayed for the rest of my life
