[Verse 1]
Lemme tell ya a little story
Fresh out of my dormitory
Didn’t know where things were going
City life felt like drownin' in the ocean
Late nights lying in my bed
With all these thoughts swimming through my head

[Chorus 1]
Lonely times drifting in my dreams
I feel alright when I'm drifting, drifting
Lonely times drifting in my dreams tonight
Woah, woah, woah

[Verse 2]
We used to go out drinking 40’s
'Til the sun was rising in the morning
Well now I’m older but not much wiser
I look back on those days as a reminder
Plans might fall apart at the seems
But you can never take away my dreams

[Bridge]
Just sit back and watch the years roll by
Travel around the sun in the blink of an eye
You know, I can't help but crack a smile
When I think back to the lonely times, yeah
[Chorus 2]
Lonely times drifting in my dreams
I feel alright when I'm drifting, drifting (away)
Lonely times drifting in my dreams tonight
Yeah I'm drifting away

Lonely times
Lonely times
Yeah I'm drifting, drifting
Lonely times
Oh, Lonely times
Lonely times drifting in my dreams tonight
