Driftwood Lyrics By The Moody Blues

    just like the driftwood of a dream
    left of the seashore of sleep
    just like the words that wouldn’t rhyme
    lost in the desert of time
    time waits for no one at all
    no not even you
    you thought you’d seen it all before
    you really thought you knew

    i don’t remember what was said
    in the confusion that night
    i only know what’s on my mind
    what’s in the future we will decide
    time waits for no one at all
    no not even you
    you thought you’d seen it all before
    you really thought you knew

    i’ve shattered the illusion
    of fortune and of fame
    but darling now i know you
    life could never be the same
    oh no don’t leave me driftwood
    on the shore

    time waits for no one my love
    no not even you
    you thought you’d seen it all before
    you really thought you knew

    i’ve shattered the illusion
    of forture and of fame
    i’m waking up
    i’m reaching up
    i’m getting up from this game
    oh no don’t leave me driftwood
    on the shore
    oh no don’t don’t leave me driftwood
    on the shore
