Drifting

ever look up and see yourself drifting?

ever see what could be?

what road you could take,

what you could choose?

 

if you could choose would you choose me?

would you choose a light-heart that's been made heavy?

would you find a way to get rid of my burden?

or would you choose to leave?

 

would you find a way to escape?

or would you find a way to make us disappear,

to be alone,

just for a day?

or would you stay tucked behind the pages of your book to be alone

with the girl inside your mind?

 

when you find yourself drifting in and out of a conversation,

you're usually distracted.

most times its because you've just fallen for someone.

 

if you find yourself drifting,

see if you can find out why.

and if you uncover me,

you'll probably find me drifting as well,

because of you.

 

i'll be dreaming only of you.

love me in memories not yet made,

but will you dream of me too?
