MOTLEY CRUE

- Driftaway Lyrics

Look inside the mirror, but I
don't know who I see.
Smoke another cigarette, a smile
holds back the tears.
These contradictions 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.

Misaway, yeah.
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.
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.
Mistakes I've made remind me of
the roads I shouldn't choose.
Never comes that easy when
you've nothing 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.

Misaway, yeah.
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.
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.
