Like most songwriters I'm doing creative speculation: what if?

lyrics

Drifting Away ©2021 KL Dennis

Are you leavin’ me darling
Somewhere in the back of your mind?
Like a tide that’s turning
Away from the coast at night?

You never used to smile politely
At my silly jokes
Or look up from the book you read
With a stare that sees right through me

Drifting away
You’re drifting away
With little things you do and say
The light in your eyes that seems to fade
Drifting away
With a few steps every day
Driftin’ away

Though you might not realize i
I think you’re tired of havin’ me near
You lately seem so distracted
Or maybe this is only my worst fear

But deep inside is where it starts
Life takes over, our love grows cold;
Together in a room but miles apart
Just two lonesome wanderin’ stars

Drifting away
You’re drifting away
With little things you do and say
The light in your eyes that seems to fade
Drifting away
With a few steps every day
Driftin’ away
Driftin' away

Bridge:
I’m gonna call you back
From your distant shore
I’m gonna hold you now
Like I never did before

No drifting away
No drifting away
With little things you do and say
Or light in your eyes that seems to fade
No drifting away
I hope and pray I’m not too late
To keep us from driftin’ away
Driftin’ away

about

K L Dennis Los Angeles, California

I'm a rebel against the way things are going. I'm a Christian who didn't vote the same way as many of my brothers and sisters. I write songs about things that matter to a man who wakes up in an increasingly strange world, and then turns that into songs. I started with five chords and the truth; now I have a few more chords. Still going for truth. ... more
