George Nooks & Clive Hunt - Drifting Away (Lyrics)

Drifting away, drifting away
Away, Aye!

Left or right say me nuh know which way fi choose
I’ve been living for the world and now my spirit in a snooze
Fighting everyday to be a better man
But my strength is not enough me haffi call on the One
And I’ve been fooled
By the school that have told me
it’ s me myself and I
Leaving no room, for the true King of glory
the one who reigns on High

Now I stopped reading your words
Not a passage or a scripture
or a verse
Was wise in my own eyes,
I couldn’t see that I was blind
Now everyday me have another vision
Never ask fi strength fi diss a mission
Feel stuck and I just can’t move,
And with all that I’m trying to prove Lord

I’m just drifting away from your love now
Drifting away,
I’m just drifting away from your love now
But that’s not where I want to stay
Drifting away,
Drifting away from your love now
Please take me back , that’s where I really wanna stay

Free me from the shackles and chains of the fame and fortune I’m chasing
Teach me how to run my own race, so I won’t spend my time just complaining
God a you alone,
hear me when I groan
I feel it in my bones
Just take this heavy load
Mercy mercy give me some mercy,
Lord me portion bitter like cerasee
And it’s all because of me, Yeah

Drifting away from your love
Drifting away
Drifting away from your love Lord
Drifting away from your love
Drifting away
Drifting away from your love
Lord

That’s not where I want to stay
Don’t leave me this way
Lord me portion bitter like cerasee
In your arms,
Where I want to stay
Where I want to stay... yeah
Whoa Yeah!
