driftwood

the man who albümünde yer alan bir travis şarkısı.

everything is open
nothing is set in stone
rivers turn to ocean
oceans tide you home
home is where your heart is
but your heart had to roam
drifting over bridges
never to return
watching bridges burn
you're driftwood floating underwater
breaking into pieces, pieces, pieces
just driftwood hollow and of no use
waterfalls will find you, bind you, grind you
nobody is an island
everyone has to go
pillars turn to butter
butterflying low
low is where your heart is
but your heart has to grow
drifting under bridges
never with the flow
and you really didn't think it would happen
but it really is the end of the line
so i'm sorry that you turned to driftwood
but you've been drifting for a long, long time
everywhere there's trouble
nowhere's safe to go
pushes turn to shovel's
shovelling the snow
frozen you have chosen
the path you wish to go
drifting now forever
and forever more
until you reach your shore
you're driftwood floating underwater
breaking into pieces, p[ieces, pieces
just driftwood hollow and of no use
waterfalls will find you, bind you, grind you
and you really didn't think it would happen
but it really is the end of the line
so i'm sorry that you turned to driftwood
but you've been drifting for a long, long time
you've been drifting for a long, long time
you've been drifting for a long, long
drifting for a long, long time

driftwood'un anlamı ise suda sürüklenen ağaç parçalarıdır.

bugün yanınızda olan, yarın olmayanlar için yazılmış harika bir travis şarkısı.

aslında hiçbir zaman yanınızda olmayanlar için yazılmış gibi arabesk bir yoruma konu olacak travis şarkısıdır. çok güzeldir. *
"you've been drifting for a long, long time.."

biredittir: john donne a göz kırpan şarkı. ..o yüzden sorma çanlar kimin için çalıyor diye çanlar senin için çalıyor. hadi bakalım. bu arada şarkının bununla yakından uzaktan alakası yoktur. ama işte şu var ki;

nobody s an island.

Tam da Travis dinlerken denk gelinen başlık. Güzel bir parçadır. Sakindir, huzur verir.
