Drifting
Embracing Change: The Journey of Love in 'Drifting' by The Benefits
Lyrics
Look at the house where we can mend
Expressing a desire to repair or improve a relationship or situation.
Now and then, and
Suggesting occasional attempts at improvement.
We could wait till, the day stands still
Proposing patience until a moment of stillness arrives.
And our love will
Expecting that love will endure through challenges.
Walk to the beat of the sun
Describing a harmonious connection, walking together in sync.
The past is where I'm from
Reflecting on the past as the place of origin.
But that's long gone
Acknowledging that the past is no longer present.
Over and done, hun
Affirming the completion and closure of the past.
The man you once knew, made a breakthrough
Highlighting personal growth and transformation in a relationship.
A whole new worldview
Embracing a new perspective on life.
Fly to the sound of the gun
Choosing to move forward despite challenges, symbolized by "the sound of the gun."
I see right through (All our days have passed)
Seeing through illusions and recognizing the passage of time.
Can you see me too (Who's to say it lasts)
Asking if the other person sees the truth and acknowledges the transient nature of life.
I see right through (Let's forget the past)
Reiterating the ability to see through pretenses and suggesting leaving the past behind.
Can you see me too (May this be our last)
Encouraging the partner to join in moving forward, hoping for a lasting change.
I see right through (Won't you follow through)
Repeating the call for commitment to the new path.
Won't you follow through
Asking for assurance and commitment to the journey ahead.
And what I have found (Made a breakthrough)
Referring to a significant discovery or realization in the relationship.
Safe and sound (Well in your eyes)
Feeling secure and content in the partner's eyes.
Keeps me grounded (A whole new world cries)
Finding stability and support in the relationship.
My thoughts are clouded (Might as well die)
Expressing confusion or uncertainty in thoughts.
And what I have found (Made a breakthrough)
Reiterating the earlier breakthrough in the relationship.
Safe and sound (Well in your eyes)
Feeling secure and content in the partner's eyes (repeated).
Keeps me grounded (A whole new world cries)
Reiterating stability and support in the relationship (repeated).
My thoughts are
Leaving thoughts incomplete, possibly reflecting inner turmoil.
Drifting away
Repeatedly expressing a sense of drifting away, suggesting emotional distance or detachment.
