This song is simply about the feeling of being carefree.
The clouds pass by
Where are they going
Where are they now
No way of knowing
I’m alone, lost and aimless,
Adrift, no wind in my sails.
Gonna breathe easy
Follow the stars
Bathe in the rays.
Drifting over the ocean
Still waters, not stormy sea,
Trying to find me some motion
Then the waves start rolling on for me.
Drifting yeah, baby I’m drifting yeah
Birds in the sky
Rocking and roaming
Fish flying high
Whether breezes are blowing
Travelling on to the horizon
Swept along wherever it be
Gonna go slowly
Dance in the moonlight
A spirit that’s free
Drifting over the ocean
Still waters, not stormy sea,
Trying to find me some motion
Then the waves start rolling on for me.
Drifting yeah, baby I’m drifting yeah
Drifting yeah, baby I’m drifting yeah.
