Drifter Lyrics

I am drifting on a sea
Of the billion words you said so sweetly
So I wrote you a letter
And hid it inside the public library
In the pages of a book about a girl called Saint Marie

There's so many roads to travel down
There's so many places we might never be found
And you thought it'd be easy to get away
Maybe we could find somewhere we want to stay

But I guess that I understand
That you couldn't love only one woman

I don't know if these words could turn back the time
And I don't know if your fingers recall mine
Or if the store on the corner
Is still selling bottles of the cheap white whine
That we drank into the night with nothing on the mind

There's so many roads to travel down
There's so many places we might never be found
And you thought it'd be easy to get away
Maybe we could find somewhere we want to stay

But I guess that I understand
That you couldn't love only one woman

Do you recall when you and I
Saw the Northern Lights dancing in the sky?

There's so many roads to travel down
There's so many places we might never be found
And you thought it'd be easy to get away
Maybe we could find somewhere we want to stay

But I guess that I understand
That you couldn't love only one woman

Oh, you couldn't love only one woman
Oh, you couldn't love only one woman
