[Verse 1]
Sorry, baby, I just don't know the words
Or how to conjugate them
Was it really past tense I heard?
Or was it present perfect?
Maybe we could forget the time
You faced that friend without me
Maybe we could go back to mine
Pretend it never happened

[Chorus]
Oh, when you're always out of time
When you say it will be fine
When I just can't find the line
Oh, hope I know what to say
When you throw it all away

[Verse 2]
Sorry, baby, I've been drifting again
Could you repeat the question?
No, I guess I do not know when
It first became a problem
Sorry that it's all such a mess
The words, they seem to leave me
Didn't really quite catch the rest
Not keen on it repeating
[Chorus]
Oh, when you're always out of time
When you say it will be fine
When I just can't find the line
Oh, hope I know what to say
When you throw it all away
When you throw it all away

[Bridge]
Sorry, baby, I just don't know the words
Was it really past tense I heard?
Maybe we can forget the time
Maybe we can go back to mine

[Outro]
Well, I think that I've been drifting
Without you, drifting
I think that I've been drifting
Without you, drifting
I think that I've been drifting
Without you, drifting
I think that I've been drifting
Without you, drifting
And now I know that you've been gone
