Driftwood

I am just driftwood
Drifting with the winds that blow across the sky
I can't always be here with you, babe
I am just driftwood drifting by

Our lives came together
And somehow we came to mingle for a while
Like two colors of the rainbow
We blended well together for a while

Yea, but I won't ever anchor down
The Lord above has numbered all my days
I am just driftwood
And I think it's time I drifted on aways

I am just driftwood
Drifting with the winds that blow across the sky
I can't always be here with you, babe
I am just driftwood drifting by
