The Drifter - David Poe

You took me like a drifter takes a friend

I’ll never be that honest again

When it seems like nothing’s gonna change

Then your world comes crashing down

O-oh

Your friends accomodate your darker phase

And then you find it’s been a hundred days

When’s the last time you remember feeling safe?

You’re surrounded by assassins in this place

O-oh

But you wanted to be here

And I’m amazed

If I appear in every story that you tell, that you tell

How can you say that I don’t know you well?

Wasn’t I the one who caught you when you fell, when you fell

How can you say that I don’t treat you well?

When I’m ringing out your name like a bell, like a bell

How can you say that I don’t wish you well?

I wish you well

You get that lonely feeling at the door

Even though you’ve left this place before

Because the truth is, you won’t care anymore

'Til your world comes crashing down

If I appear in every story that you tell, that you tell

How can you say that I don’t know you well?

Wasn’t I the one who caught you when you fell, when you fell

How can you say that I don’t treat you well?

When I’m ringing out your name like a bell, like a bell

How can you say that I don’t wish you well?

I wish you well
