Driftwood
Hazel O'connor

Hazel O'Connor


Sitting on the sunny shoreline, see some driftwood

Come to rest

Worn out by the tides, born up by it's endless rides

Never free, just a bit like me.

I've been that piece of wood I've been tossed about

Upon the ocean of illusion, confusion.

Bitter and twisted like waves lashing out at the rock.


Well I now know I just gotta find

That shore line oh yeah, that little peace of mind

And let the sun shine on me


I swam the sea of passion, jealousy and pain,

Ignorance pretends to drown, grabs for your hands

Again, drags you down again.

Yeah, but my soul cries out just to break those chains,

Well listen you who've travelled all these jungles

Concrete and the other kind, you know there's more

You got your own key the door, go on open it open it up


Well I now know I just gotta find

That shore line oh yeah, that little peace of mind

And let the sun shine on me


Been a long time from my home and I want

To get back there,

But most of my memories got washed away with the tide

A friend waits for me at the edge of the sea

My soul is your lover I cry


Oh beloved wipe away these tears from my eyes

Of my illusion, my confusion.

Brittle and twisted like waves lashing out at the rock


Well I now know I just gotta find

That shore line oh yeah, that little peace of mind

And let the sun shine on me...
