Driftwood on the River

Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer
I'm just driftwood on the river floating down the tide I don't care where this old river carries me I keep drifting just because my heart is broken inside And I'm tired of wishing for what cannot be (I may meet some little driftwood lost as same as I Share a handshake and a tender tear or two) But it's always good luck how we got to say goodbye I must wander on to keep my rendezvous Though I drift through town and city I can never stay For I find no place to call my home sweet home I don't ask for help or pitty I just go my way All I'm praying for is peace to dream alone (I'm just driftwood on the river and I'm drifting on Till this weary river meets the deep blue sea) Where the deep blue sea may help me to forget someone Yes the careless one who has forgotten me In my heart I don't feel bitter over what has been I feel sorry for the one I must forget And instead of being someone with the world to win I'm just driftwood on the river of regret
