Drifting Away - Judy Collins, Ari Hest

Out on a blue southern ocean

I am humbled looking skyward

Beholden to the current

Floating on a gentle summer wave

Dreaming the day, drifting away

Nothing to do but do nothing

In the stillness of the moment

In the kindness of the sun

Just to be, the only thing I crave

Dreaming the day, drifting away

It’s been a long lonely winter

Though my body had recoiled

Now I’m opened by the water

Renewed with a purpose

I’ll return to you the love that you gave

Embracing the day, drifting away

There is a cloud hanging over

But I am looking past her

Though she is majestic

To the endless sky above

And I feel I found the courage to be brave

Dreaming the day, drifting away

Dreaming the day, drifting away
