Story Behind the Song
The end of school was near with graduation just around the corner. The thought of all your friends leaving and going to diferent colleges makes you think of the transfer to this whole new world of adulthood.
This song was written around close friends in an old house filled with memories.
"Drifting Away" was pounded out at the studio as if we were telling the world about our troubles. Rock on!!!
Lyrics
Let's fade away.
nothing left, no reason to stay
Let's leave them behind,
they didn't care they wasted our time.
I'll be up at dawn ready to go,
soon to be gone.
Be waiting for me at your door,
so we can leave.
Let's not take a lot, there's not much we need,
and no second thoughts.
Let's not look back, cuz we're moving on
along the right track.
Drifting away, we're on our way, so far away.
Drifting away
Drifting away, lay by the bay, cuz we just may!
I don't even think, they’ll remember us,
but we're better off, paradise or bust!
Quarter past noon, well on our way,
we'll be there soon.
I know we're not lost, just making good time,
avoiding the costs.
Starting again, leaving the past.
Time to begin on our way at last.
Drifting away, we're on our way, so far away.
Drifting away, leaving today with no delay.
Drifting away, lay by the bay, cuz we just may!
I don't even think, they’ll remember us,
but we're better off, paradise or bust!
Drifting away! (repeat)
Drifting away, we're on our way, so far away.
Drifting away, leaving today with no delay.
Drifting away, lay by the bay, cuz we just may!
I don't even think, they’ll remember us,
but we're better off, paradise or bust!
