Oh How We Drift Away Songtext
von Tim Heidecker

Last time I saw him we weren′t really talking
He said, "Hey, how're you living? How′s life been treating you?"
It was at the Good Luck Bar before they closed down
About a month before I left town

Oh, how we drift away from our friends
And the ones back home play "Remember when"
You can take me out of your phone
If you come knocking, I won't be home

Finally met for lunch after weeks of pushing
And the catching up dried out just as we were getting drinks
Settled in on gossip and restaurants and nonsense
And I wish I was as clever as they think


Oh, how we drift away from our friends
And the ones back home play "Remember when"
You can take me out of your phone
If you come knocking, I won't be home
Home
Home
Home

20 thousand years ago, can you even imagine?
In the Chauvet caves, women painting on the wall
Pictures of their memories, pictures of their stories
Pictures of their love affairs, pictures of their worries
I wonder if they ever dreamt of us at all, at all

Oh, we stand on their bones and walk on their souls
And the children who lived, grew into women and men
And painted over their mother′s work again and again
Again and again
Again and again

Oh, how we drift away
Oh, how we drift away
Oh, how we drift away
Oh, how we drift away
