Drift Apart - reimagined Songtext
von Ben Caplan

When I wrote you that letter
You′d already made up your mind
All my words were written in vain

When I called you up that day
I was only calling up to say hello
But goodbye
Was the word that you'd been thinking ′bout for days

I didn't know that you were going to leave me
I wish I knew the way to make you come home
What can I do if this it right for you?

I have not been perfect for you
Although I think I was back at the start
You have no more patience for me
So now I guess we'll both just drift apart


All those times I wasn′t there
The times you thought I didn′t care
I hope you can believe I thought of you
'Cause you were everything I needed
I′ve been selfish and so self-absorved
I thought that you'd be waiting
When I reached the other side

Last night I put my arms around another woman′s waist
The touch was sweet but bitter while we danced
Greater love can bring greater pain
I hope I fall in love again
What can I do if this is right for you?

I have not been perfect for you
I like to think I was back at the start
You have no more patience for me
So now I guess we'll both just drift apart

I want the best for you
And now I realize that isn′t me
I haven't been the man you need
I wish I'd been able to be
I′m sorry that I did not give you everything that you desired
And that I make you feel upset
When you just made me feel inspired


I have not been perfect for you
I wish we could go back and just restart
You have no more patience for me
So now I guess we′ll both just drift apart

Drift apart
