Before We Drift Away Lyrics by Nothing But Thieves

Moral Panic (Complete Edition)

2020

[Verse 1]
I wonder where I float to
When I return to dust?
A sea to wash away the last of us
It's such a funny feeling
The world's at war again
But in this very moment
Oh, it couldn't matter less (Oh, oh)
Immersed in deepest ocean
The waves all move as one
Then separate themselves under the sun
[Chorus]
And as we sing this familiar song
I thought I'm gonna miss your love when it's gone
Will it flow into the river?
Or will it go to waste?
Before we drift away
Before we drift away
[Verse 2]
Somnus waits for no one
A clock without a facе
Will it feel like an arrest or our escapе?
[Chorus]
And as we sing this familiar song
I thought I'm gonna miss your love when it's gone
Will it flow into the river?
Or will it go to waste?
Before we drift away
Before we drift away
[Post-Chorus]
I'm gonna hang on this forever
Hang on to this forever
Hang on to this forever
Forever
[Chorus]
And as we sing this familiar song
I thought I'm gonna miss your love when it's gone
Will it flow into the river?
Or will it go to waste?
Before we drift away
[Post-Chorus]
I'm gonna hang on this forever
Hang on to this forever
Hang on to this forever
[Outro]
I don't wanna grow old
