Lyrics for Before We Drift Away

I wonder where I float to when I return to dust The sea will wash away the last of us It's such a funny feeling The world's at war again But in this very moment Oh, it couldn't matter less I'm lost in deepest thoughts The waves will move as one They separate themselves under the sun And as we sing this familiar song I thought I'm gonna miss your love when it's gone Will it flow into the river? Or will it go to waste? Before we drift away Before we drift away Summer's wasted now A clock without a face Will it feel like our arrest or our escape? And as we sing this familiar song I thought I'm gonna miss your love when it's gone Will it flow into the river? Or will it go to waste? Before we drift away Before we drift away I'm gonna hang on this forever Hang onto this forever Hang onto this forever Forever And as we sing this familiar song I thought I'm gonna miss your love when it's gone Will it flow into the river? Or will it go to waste? Before we drift away I'm gonna hang on this forever Hang onto this forever Hang onto this forever I don't wanna grow old
