"Drift Away" lyrics

"Drift Away"

Frayed blue jeans on a jet black hood
Feather braided through your hair
That red bandana 'round your wrist
Gold rims and Ray Ban stares
Memories like that don't take much
To fade 'em right back into view
This time it was the ocean windshield diamond blue
That made me think of you

And I drift away
On the waves of a radio midnight haze
I get lost in the sound and I hear your name
Always take me right back to that place
That silver shoreline, Chevrolet

The way you tasted on my lips
How that Summer came and went
It flips a switch and my mind slips
The levee breaks
And I drift away

I let the past right back in
Like sugar sound around your feet
Scraping through sunsets with your hands
Telling me, we'll never leave

What we had on those gulf coast nights
We were too wild and young to know
I let those runway red light take you right back home

And I drift away
On the waves of a radio midnight haze
I get lost in the sound and I hear your name
Always take me right back to that place
That silver shoreline, Chevrolet

The way you tasted on my lips
How that Summer came and went
It flips a switch and my mind slips
The levee breaks
And I drift away

You wouldn't let me say goodbye
You still cross my mind from time to time to time
I drift away

The way you tasted on my lips
How that Summer came and went
It flips a switch and my mind slips
The levee breaks
And I drift away
And I drift away
