I'm driftin' away
Down a long dark highway
I looked back once
I can't look anymore
And if you find me
On some lonesome shore
You wouldn't have
To look for more

You touched a dream
You broke a heart
Now wasn't that a shame
Heaven must know
I gave all i could
Can't give you more
Please don't stand outside
Of my door

I'm driftin' away
Down a long dark highway
I looked back once
I can't look anymore
And if you find me
On some lonesome shore
You wouldn't have
To look for more

You call on the phone
You say you're alone
What am i supposed
To do about that
Words they can cut
Cut deep like a knife
Right to the core
Please don't stand outside
Of my door

I'm driftin' away
Down a long dark highway
I looked back once
I can't look anymore
And if you find me
On some lonesome shore
You wouldn't have
To look for more

Don't write me a letter
I don't want to know
Don't say you've found
Somebody new
If it's somebody else
Don't tell me who, why, or
What for
Please
Don't stand
Outside of my door

I'm driftin' away
Down a long dark highway
I looked back once
I can't look anymore
And if you find me
On some lonesome shore
You wouldn't have
To look for more
And if you find me
On some lonesome shore
You wouldn't have
To look for more
