Driftin Away Into The Dixie Night

Verse 1

Empty shoes on worn wood

Sunlight spillin, slow and good

We stood, hush fell, silence strong

Shoulders almost touchin, long pause drawn

Air so soft, time starts slip

Feels like we’re stayin, won’t let it rip

Suitcase just outside, but we don’t reach

Just breathe, just wait, hush over speech

Chorus

With the clock tick, tickin, but we stay

Hearts, heavy hangin, won't drift away

Found something better than the way we ran

Stole a quiet moment, just hand in hand

All the worries left behind on the breeze

You’re all I’m seein, baby, all I need

Holdin on as the day fades out of sight

Oh yeah, we’re driftin away into the dixie night

Driftin away into the dixie night

Post-Chorus

Driftin, driftin, oh so right

Dixie sky, gentle light

Verse 2

No calls comin in, no voices loud

No neighbors, no shouts, just the hush of this crowd

Just you and me, cotton clouds slow-roll

One breath, two souls, swallowin whole

We turned our faces, found old laughter

I wish this could last forever after

Quiet turns bold as you squeeze my hand

Here, love’s laid out like a river of sand

Chorus

With the clock tick, tickin, but we stay

Hearts, heavy hangin, won't drift away

Found something better than the way we ran

Stole a quiet moment, just hand in hand

All the worries left behind on the breeze

You’re all I’m seein, baby, all I need

Holdin on as the day fades out of sight

Oh yeah, we’re driftin away into the dixie night

Driftin away into the dixie night

Bridge

So let that clock keep spinning slow

Don’t need a reason, we don’t wanna go

Troubles tumble down, left outta mind

It’s only us, and I don’t mind

Chorus

With the clock tick, tickin, but we stay

Hearts, heavy hangin, won't drift away

Found something better than the way we ran

Stole a quiet moment, just hand in hand

All the worries left behind on the breeze

You’re all I’m seein, baby, all I need

Holdin on as the day fades out of sight

Oh yeah, we’re driftin away into the dixie night

Driftin away into the dixie night

Post-Chorus

Driftin, driftin, oh so right

Dixie night, gentle light

Outro

Driftin away, holdin you right

Just you and me in the dixie night
