Continental Drifters - Drifters lyrics

Written by susan cowsill & peter holsapple Main voice: susan Produced by continental drifters & mike mayeux Released on 'vermilion' (1999) It's been a long haul L.a. to la We've always done it our way That's just how we are Rolling off that mountain Headed out for glory I guess you heard the story Man, we felt so strong I never thought we'd laugh this long. We are all drifters Singers and sisters Brothers and lovers and mothers and confidantes We were born alone We're alone when we're gone So while we're here We might as well just sing along. Keeping up the good fight And we'll be alright We always have each other And that's all we need And if you want to find us We left a map behind us Meeting in the circle Swirling sky and stars You never have to look too far. 'cause we are all drifters Singers and sisters Brothers and lovers and mothers and confidantes We were born alone We're alone when we're gone So while we're here We might as well just sing along. You don't understand, no You don't understand. And if we're all wrong We'll have to sing our own songs To one another Until we grow old And that's the way we started And even if we're parted There'll always be a road sign To lead us home We never have to be alone. 'cause we are all drifters Singers and sisters Brothers and lovers and mothers and confidantes We were born alone We're alone when we're gone So while we're here We might as well just... We are all drifters (we're all drifters) Singers and sisters (singers and sisters) Brothers and lovers and mothers and confidantes We were born alone We're alone when we're gone So while we're here We might as well just sing along. And while you're here You might as well just sing along.
