As the moments drift away, And winter memories flow in streams beneath a frozen dream While stars faint behind the clouds And bird song fades in the distant night, I long to feel your warm kiss upon my lips. When your fingers softly traced the smile on my face You took my breath away. We sit in a quiet room, content to be together By faded pictures of our happy years. You stare right through me, I long to share the feelings when you knew me, How once you held me with your tenderness. But daylight disappears, along with your caress And nighttime plays its games, among all those picture frames As the moments drift away. I hold my dreams and make another wish. One last song, Within my aching heart Longs to tell you all the things you are to me, As the moments drift away. Sometimes you say mean things that really hurt, Then you say what’s really in your heart. You touch my hand, and kiss my cheek With a look that understands. Just hold me close for one brief shining moment As two lovers dance within our eyes. Deep down, somewhere, I know you still adore me. As the moments drift away. Drift Away… I will love you forever. Drift Away… Drift.
