Driftin' Too Far from Shore

Driftin' Too Far from Shore - Bob Dylan

Didn't know that you'd be leaving

Or who you thought you were talking to

I figure maybe we're even

Or maybe I'm one up on you

I send you all my money

Just like I did before

I tried to reach you honey

But you're driftin' too far from shore

Driftin' too far from shore

Driftin' too far from shore

I ain't gotta get lost in this current

I don't like playing cat and mouse

No gentleman likes making love to a servant

Especially when he's in his fathers house

I never could guess your weight baby

Never needed to call you my whore

I always thought you were straight baby

But you're driftin' too far from shore

Driftin' too far from shore

Driftin' too far from shore

Well these times and these tunnels are haunted

The bottom of the barrel is too

I waited years sometimes for what I wanted

Everybody can't be as lucky as you

Never no more do I wonder

Why you don't never play with me any more

At any moment you could go under

Cause you're driftin' too far from shore

Driftin' too far from shore

Driftin' too far from shore

You and me we had completeness

I give you all of what I could provide

We weren't on the wrong side sweetness

We were the wrong side

I've already ripped out the phones honey

You can't walk the streets in a war

I can't finish this alone honey

You're driftin' too far from shore

You're driftin' too far from shore
