Time moves so slow
He sees it in a smile
When he breathe he grows
And he's done so far some while
And he knows he knows
That it's time to move along
And he knows he knows
That it's time to right the wrong
As he looks out on the oceanside
And the light begins to fade
Where she felt wind on the rising tide
Head for home or drift away
Head for home or drift away
In his eyes there's only spite
And the drink it soothes his soul
Another glass I think I might
And the pain it still won't show
And he knows he knows
That it's time to move along
And he knows he knows
That it's time to right the wrong
As he looks out on the oceanside
And the light begins to fade
Where she felt wind on the rising tide
If her home will drift away
If her home will drift away
Where the river meets the sea
And he's caught up in between
Just about all he can take
Head for home or drift away (yeah)
Head for home or drift away (ohh)
Head for home or drift away (I said)
Head for home or drift away (ohh)
Head for home or drift away
