The Drifter
Dennis Walks Lyrics

The lyrics to Dennis Walks's song "The Drifter" speak volumes about the singer's life, love, and journey. The song is essentially about his search for true love and how he's been a drifter all his life wandering from one relationship to another, without finding his true soulmate until he met his current love. He asks his current love to come closer and give him her true love saying that his life has changed ever since he met her. The opening lines, "Girl, will you run come and give me your love, oh yeah, your true love," expresses the singer's heartfelt desire for the woman to come and give him her true love.

The chorus is a confession that he has always been a drifter and sings this fact twice, emphasizing the point that he's not always been successful in finding true love and has been wandering aimlessly until he met his current love. The last two verses reveal that he has found his true love in the girl he's addressing in the song. The lines "Girl, my life has changed, from the first day I met you, oh yeah, the first day I met you", convey the happiness, the change, and satisfaction he has achieved by finding his true love.

In a nutshell, "The Drifter" is a love song about finding true love after endless wandering and seeking, and the happiness and fulfillment that come with it. By sharing his journey, Dennis Walks invites us to believe that true love indeed exists and is worth seeking.
