Don Gibson - Driftwood On The River Lyrics

I'm just driftwood on the river floatin' down the tide

I don't care where this old river carries me

I keep drifting just because my heart is broken inside

And I'm tired of wishing for what cannot be

I'm just driftwood on the river and I'm drifting on

Till the weary river meets the deep blue sea

Where the deep blue sea may help me to forget someone

Yes the careless one who has forgotten me

[ ac.guitar - choir ]

In my heart I don't feel bitter over what has been

I feel sorry for the one I must forget

And instead of being someone with the world to win

I'm just driftwood on the river of regret mhm
