Drifting Away

My words fell short in the middle of the spotlight

My arms unfold and nobody's gonna get my eyes off you

Promise me you'll lead me away from the past and the broken

I can't explain all the things that i was thinking

My eye's on you promise me you'll lead me away

I've been waiting for you

And if i slow my breathing

I'll build a spine and make a move

I've been drifting away

Away from these average thoughts

And into every word you say

I've been drifting away

Oh i've been slipping away

I've been drifting away

And i've been slipping

Into every word you say

The love i sought would have never been in this light

A parking lot down south close to midnight

Come back soon i promise you i'll lead you away

From the past and the broken

I've been burned so i know what you were thinking

Come back soon i promise you i'll let you away

I've been waiting for you

And if i slow my breathing

I'll build a spine and make a move

I've been drifting away

Away from these average thoughts

And into every word you say

I've been drifting away

Oh i've been slipping away

I've been drifting away

And i've been slipping

Into every word you say

I broke one

Why another one

Too many times i've played the fool

But god knows my breaks brought me back to you

I broke one

Why another one

I can't believe i'm seeing two

But god knows my breaks bear to save you

I've been waiting for you

And if i slow my breathing

I'll build a spine and make a move

I've been drifting away

Away from these average thoughts

And into every word you say

I've been drifting away

Oh i've been slipping away

I've been drifting away

And i've been slipping

Into every word you say
