Driftwood - Paul Williams

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
