Drifters

Rodgers

Well, I told you about the highways and the byways of my life
You told me about your childhood pain, how it cut you like a knife
Well, we saw the world through each other’s eyes for a little while
And we made each other crazy but we made each other smile

Well, we drove from San Francisco to that hotel in L.A
Dreaming of a perfect world I heard myself say
‘Baby, if you can take a man like me’
‘I could love a little girl like you’
‘We could put our dreams together’
‘Maybe some of them will cometrue’

All we are is drifters in the night
You and me, baby, in the afterglow
All we are is drifters in the night
Come tomorrow, the wind blows and who knows ?

Well, now the storm clouds gathered around us and we had to break apart, ooh ooh
I left you with your mama but I left you with my heart, ooh ooh
Now there’s a thousand miles on the telephone line trying to communicate, ooh ooh
I can’t reach you, you can’t get through to me, I guess it’s just too late, ooh ooh

All we are is drifters in the night
You and me, baby, in the afterglow
All we are is drifters in the night
Come tomorrow, the wind blows and who knows ?
Who knows, baby ?

All we are is drifters in the night
You and me, baby, in the afterglow
All we are is drifters in the night
Come tomorrow, the wind blows and who knows ?
We’re drifters in the night
Drifters in the night
You and me, bby, all right
