[D] Just like the driftwood of a dream Left [G] on the seashore [A] of sleep
[D] Just like the words that wouldn't rhyme Lost in [G] the desert of [A] time
Time waits [Em] with no one at all [A] No, not even you
You thought you'd [Em] seen it all before [A] You really thought you knew
[D] I don't remember what was said In [G] the confusion [A] that night
[D] I only know what's on my mind What's in [G] the future, we will [A] decide
Time waits [Em] with no one at all [A] No, not even you
You thought [Em] you'd seen it all before [A] You really thought you knew
[Gm] I've shattered the illusion Of [Dm] fortunes and your [Gm] faith
But [D]
darling, now I [G] know it Life could [D] never be the [G] same
[A] Oh no, don't leave [Em] the driftwood [A] on [D] the shore
