Drift Away

Day after day I'm more confused
I look for the light in the pouring rain
You know that's a game that I hate to lose
I'm feeling the strain ain't it a shame, oh
(Chorus)
Give me the beat boys to soothe my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Give me the beat boys to soothe my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Beginning to think that I'm wasting time
Don't understand the things that I do
'Cause the world outside looks so unkind
Now I'm counting on you to carry me through, oh
(Chorus)
And when my mind is free no melody can move me
When I'm feeling blue guitars are coming through
And thanks for the joy that you've given me
I want you to know I believe in your song
And rhyme and rhyme and harmony
You help me along making me strong
(Chorus)
