Drifting
Cimo Frankel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can’t believe my eyes
Drifting ‘cause I’m far away (so far away)
Been reaching all this time
Drifting and I’m far away (so far away)
After all this time
You see me standing all the way (so far away)
On the other side
Drifting ‘cause I’m far away

Can’t believe my eyes
Drifting ‘cause I’m far away (so far away)
Been reaching all this time
Drifting and I’m far away (so far away)
After all this time
You see me standing all the way (so far away)




On the other side
Drifting ‘cause I’m far away (drifting ‘cause I’m far away)
