Lyrics
[Intro]
(Piano)
(Shimmering guitar)
[Verse 1]
Paper moons above the river
Silver falling through the trees
I can hear the water whisper
Things it never says to me
Everybody wears a face
Everybody wears another
Floating slowly through the shadows
Like reflections on the water
[Chorus]
Drift away
Drift away
Nothing stays the same
Drift away
Drift away
Calling out my name
[Violin Interlude]
[Verse 2]
I watched the colors leave the garden
One by one into the night
All the promises were glowing
Then dissolved before the light
There’s a stranger in the mirror
Wearing every mask I’ve known
And the farther that I follow
The less I feel at home
[Chorus]
Drift away
Drift away
Nothing stays the same
Drift away
Drift away
Calling out my name
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Maybe we’re only echoes
Maybe we’re only dreams
Passing through each other
Like smoke through sunbeams
(Pause)
Maybe there is no answer
Maybe there never was
Only the sound of the river
Carrying all of us
[Final Chorus]
Drift away
Drift away
Into the blue again
Drift away
Drift away
Where the sky begins
[Outro]
Paper moons…
Paper moons…
Floating through the dark…
