Funny how sometimes we take off To our own realties Cut all our ties and dream up Someplace nice where we want to be Maybe its not how you grew up When you ask someone how they're doing Expect just fine when they answer with a lie If we all tried a lot more talking Then we can start to make amends Put an end to the standby Maybe its not how you grew up So unfamiliar with the human touch We keep on drifting We keep on drifting We keep on drifting through We're driftwood people Never growing roots Never the first and we wont be the last Makes you wonder what's left to discover We've got a lot to learn from our past So leave no stone unturned Let's get to know each other Maybe it's not how you grew up Can't we stop for a second and realize what we got oh We keep on drifting We keep on drifting We keep on drifting through We're driftwood people Never growing roots We're driftwood people Never growing roots We keep on drifting We keep on drifting We keep on drifting through We're driftwood people We're driftwood People Never growing roots
