Crue Motley - Driftaway Lyrics

Look inside the mirror

But I don't know who I see

Smoke another cigarette

A smile holds back the tears

These contraditions

Seem to be the story of my life

A simple man with memories

Of those long lost golden days

I close my eyes and slowly driftaway

Mistakes I've made remind me

Of the roads I shouldn't choose

It never comes that easy

When you've nuthin left to lose

I can't see the answers

Tell me why am I so blind

A tired man, I'll make the best

Of another lonely day

I close my eyes and slowly driftaway


Never thought I'd make it

Just from playin my guitar

Just a little smile

Always shelters me from pain

Every time I start to slide

I wish upon a star (no matter where we are)

The sun comes out

And dries up all the rain


I'm an honest man

Who refused the shade

On a hot and lonely day

I close my eyes and dream my life away


Now I know that I can stop the rain

Close my eyes and slowly driftaway

Close my eyes and dream my life away

Close my eyes and slowly driftaway

Close my eyes and dream my life away
