Ben Caplan & The Casual Smokers - Drift Apart lyrics

When I wrote you that letter, you'd already made up your mind All my words were written in vain And when I called you up that day I was only calling up to say hello, but goodbye Was the word that you'd been thinking 'bout for days I didn't know that you were going to leave me I wish I knew the way to make you come home What can I do if this is right for you I have not been perfect for you Although I think I was back at the start You have no more patience for me So now I guess we'll both just drift apart All those times I wasn't there The times you thought I didn't care I hope you can believe I thought of you 'Cause you were everything I needed I've been selfish and so self-absorbed I thought that you'd be waiting when I reached the other side Last night I put my arms around another woman's waist The touch was sweet but bitter while we danced And great love can bring greater pain I hope I fall in love again What can I do if this is right for you I have not been perfect for you I like to think I was back at the start You have no more patience for me So now I guess we'll both just drift apart I want the best for you and now I realize that isn't me I haven't been the man you need, I wish I'd been able to be I'm sorry that I did not give you everything that you desired And that I made you feel upset when you just made me feel inspired I have not been perfect for you I wish we could go back and just restart But you have no more patience for me So now I guess we'll both just drift apart Drift apart..
