I didn’t know that you’d be leavin’
Or who you thought you were talkin’ to
I figured maybe we’re even
Or maybe I’m one up on you
I sent you all my money
Just like I did before
I tried to reach you honey
But you’re driftin’ too far from the shore

I ain’t gonna get lost in this current
I don’t like playing cat and mouse
No gentleman likes making love to a servant
Especially when he’s in his father’s house
I never could guess your weight, baby
Never needed to call you my whore
I always thought you were straight, baby
But you’re driftin’ too far from the shore

Well these times and these tunnels are haunted
The bottom of the barrel is too
I waited years sometimes for what I wanted
Everybody can’t be as lucky as you
Never no more do I wonder
Why you don’t never play with me anymore
At any moment we could go under
’Cause you’re driftin’ too far from the shore

You and me we had completeness
I give you all of what I could provide
We weren’t on the wrong sides, sweetness
We were the wrong side
I’ve already ripped out the phones, honey
You can’t walk the streets in a war
I can't finish this alone honey
But you’re driftin’ too far from the shore
