Wish I could make a promise that I could keep
Wish I could give you all the steady you need
But I’ve never been one to stay long stationary
I’ve always kinda been this way
So blame it on my blood
That’s where I get it from
Can’t be nobody but me, baby

Part of me’s an anchor
Part of me’s an airplane
I’m either the mountain or the rolling stone
Part of me’s a gold band
Part of me’s a nomad
Torn between a driveway or the open road
Yeah, half of me’ll wanna lay roots down with ya
Oh, but half of me’ll always be a long gone drifter, drifter, drifter

I wanna take my whole heart and give it to you
I wanna say forever and mean it, too
I want you to be the one thing that I can’t lose
But I’ve always kinda felt like

Part of me’s an anchor
Part of me’s an airplane
I’m either the mountain or the rolling stone
Part of me’s a gold band
Part of me’s a nomad
Torn between a driveway or the open road
Yeah, half of me’ll wanna lay roots down with ya
Oh, but half of me’ll always be a long gone drifter, drifter, drifter

Before we get too far
In case I break your heart
I want you to know the real me, baby

Part of me’s an anchor
Part of me’s an airplane
I’m either the mountain or the rolling stone
Part of me’s a gold band
Part of me’s a nomad
Torn between a driveway or the open road
Yeah, half of me’ll wanna lay roots down with ya
Oh, but half of me’ll always be a long gone drifter
Yeah, half of me’ll wanna lay roots down with ya
Oh, but half of me’ll always be a long gone drifter, drifter, drifter
