I Can Feel You Drifting

Kenny Rogers · Water & Bridges [Capitol Nashville] [2005]

(William Kirsch - Bat McGrath)



You took me out so far that I can't swim to shore

I've been holdin' on but you're not any more

Our love would always lead us home, constant as the Northern Star

Here's a storm we won't get through 'cause it's not in your heart.



I can feel you drifting slowly out of reach

Out there in the distance, there's something else you need

If I could be what's missing, that's all I'd want to be

I can feel you drifting.



In the silence that's become the company we keep

I realise how far we are from what we used to be

A part of you has gone somewhere that I can't seem to touch

I could stay and take what's left, but, baby, that's not us.



I can feel you drifting slowly out of reach

Out there in the distance, there's something else you need

If I could be what's missing, that's all I'd want to be

I can feel you drifting.



If I could be what's missing, that's all I'd want to be

I can feel you drifting.

I can feel you drifting.

You're out of reach....
