Drifting
Cadiz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like a ship out on the sea.
Well I'm drifting and drifting,
Like a ship out on the sea.
Well I ain't got nobody
In this world to care for me.
If my baby would only take me back again
Well you know I ain't good for nothin' baby
Well I haven't got no friends.
I give you all of my money,
Tell me what more can I do.
I give you all my money,
Tell me what more can I do.
Well you just a good little girl
But you just won't be true.
Bye-bye baby, baby bye-bye bye-bye,
It's gonna be too late baby
I'll be so far away.
The lyrics of Cadiz's song Drifting convey a sense of loneliness and aimless wandering, as the singer compares themselves to a ship adrift in the vastness of the sea. They express a deep sense of isolation and hurt, lamenting that they have nobody in this world to care for them. The repetition of the phrase "drifting and drifting" serves to emphasize the singer's feeling of being lost and without direction or purpose.
The second verse of the song reveals that the singer is hoping for reconciliation with their lover, as they plead for their baby to take them back again. However, the singer also acknowledges that they aren't good for anything and that they have no friends to turn to. This verse contrasts the singer's longing for connection with the reality of their situation - that they have burned bridges and may not be worthy of forgiveness or companionship.
In the final verse of the song, the singer gives voice to their frustration with their lover, lamenting that they give them all of their money but still can't seem to earn their trust. The repetition of the phrase "tell me what more can I do" underscores the singer's sense of helplessness and inability to change the situation. The song ends with the singer saying goodbye to their lover, indicating that they will soon be too far gone to turn back.
Overall, Cadiz's song Drifting is a powerful expression of the pain of loneliness and the desire for connection, juxtaposed against the reality of mistakes made and bridges burned. The song is hauntingly beautiful and uniquely captures a universal human experience.

Well I'm drifting and drifting,
I am aimlessly wandering, much like a ship that is lost at sea
Like a ship out on the sea.
I am lost and have no direction or control over my life's journey
Well I ain't got nobody
I am alone and have nobody to rely on or care for me
In this world to care for me.
I feel insignificant and unimportant in this world
If my baby would only take me back again
I am hoping my past lover would forgive me and take me back into their life
If my baby would only take me back again.
I feel regret for the mistakes I have made and the people I have hurt
Well you know I ain't good for nothin' baby
I am aware that I have no value or worth in someone else's life
Well I haven't got no friends.
I am isolated and do not have any meaningful relationships in my life
I give you all of my money,
I have given everything I have, both emotionally and financially
Tell me what more can I do.
I am seeking validation and acceptance from someone who won't appreciate me
Well you just a good little girl
I acknowledge that you are kind and considerate to me
But you just won't be true.
I realize that you will never reciprocate my love and loyalty
Bye-bye baby, baby bye-bye bye-bye,
I am saying farewell and goodbye to my relationship
It's gonna be too late baby
I know that I have made irreversible mistakes and it's too late to fix things
I'll be so far away.
I will be so emotionally detached and distant from the relationship
