Drifted Apart - Tift Merritt

You are child when love is born

Can’t stay a child for long

Maybe the good times are up ahead

Maybe those times are gone

Same things keeping us together are the very ones making it hard

Better take a look around

Baby, we’re drifting apart

Day by day, slowly you change

Growing into what you are

Nobody sees it happening

It’s easy like opening a door

Same things keeping us together begin to make a wreck of our hearts

No use to shout about it

Baby, we’ve drifted apart

Drifting apart, drifting

Drifting so slow, drifting

I watch you go, I watch you go

Don’t pretend you don’t know

The quiet settling of the night

It always comes to this

You answer to yourself in the dark

That’s where everyone lives

Same things keeping us together are the problems we had from the start

Staying beside each other lonely feels like the hardest part

Same things keeping us to together are the very ones that tear us apart

Nobody’s fault at all

Baby, we’re drifting apart
