Neil Diamond - The Drifter Lyrics
Written by: neil diamondWell, I am the drifterI walk the highwaysI cross the riverThat rolls on forgottenI sing for the livingLive for the tryingBut whats it aboutIf you got to be trying aloneAnd Im the dreamerWho climbed the mountainWho saw foreverAcross the oceanBut you found me waitingAnd knew that I wouldBe lost foreverI kept on trying aloneThey call me the drifterAnd I walk the highwaysI crossed every riverThat rolled on forgottenId sing for the livingBut inside was dyingcause whats it aboutIf you got to be trying aloneWell, Im the drifterWho solved the answerAnd when I found youI knew for everWould be for everAnd not for some timeAnd youd be mineWont have to be trying aloneNow I sing like a dreamerAnd I walk like Im flyingI looked in your eyesThere was no use denyingYou cared for that momentAnd I knew the answerI came for a whileAnd I stayed for the rest of my lifeI came for a whileAnd I stayed for the rest of my lifeI came for a whileAnd I stayed for the rest of my lifeWell, I was the drifterAnd I walked the highwaysI crossed every riverThat rolled on forgottenI sang for the livingAnd lived for the tryingI came for a whileAnd I stayed for the rest of my life
