Drifting With The Tide

 

As my boat draws near the harbor

Knowing soon that you'll be mine

But if another has you darling

I'll go drifting with the tide

 

CHORUS

I have crossed the great wide ocean

I have waited for the time

But if another has you darling

I'll go drifting with tide

 

A long, long time has passed my darling

Since that night you made those vows

I know my heart would break with sorrow

If you should say it's over now

 

CHORUS(2x)

 

The above lyrics are based on the version found on the “My Dixie Home” CD

And another verse:

 

I'm in love with you my darling

And I'm praying you'll be mine

But if you change your mind my darlin

I'll go driftin with the tide
