I'm drifting, down the river,
I fell and drowning.
Will someone lift me up,
Take my hand and pull
Me out?
But I've gone down too far,
The current is taking my soul away...

The night before I tossed
And turned
Because I couldn't sleep.
I closed my eyes and saw
My life, my wish...
What I want and need.
And as I drift down under this river
To sleep.

Here I am, floating,
Memories came shooting back at me.
I remembered all the things in my life,
Things I wished I forgot,
Things I wished would sink...down under.
But then I saw
The good things in life,
Things I need and care for.
I couldn't miss...
...couldn't walk away
...to float away...

`Cause I'm drifting, down the river,
I fell and drowning.
Will someone lift me up,
Take my hand and pull
Me out?
But I've gone down too far,
The current is taking my soul away
