Lyrics

Driftin in New York City
c 1985 Robert Boyle
ascap

When I was young I rode a silver cloud
but now it's vanished in the air.
When I was young I built castles in the sand
but now they've slipped to the sea
When I was young I ,skipped on golden dreams
but now they're left just to haunt me
When I was young, I had a puppy dog,
and I can still feel him beside me.

Now I'm just driftin in New York City
with my guitar in my hand
Spending days just playing on the corner
and being the city's finest one man band.

I just wanna see your faces
a running stream that never ends
I just wanna sing my song with you
and I hope that I harmonize a friend.

Now I'm just driftin in New York City
with my guitar in my hand
Spending days just playing on the corner
and being the city's finest one man band.

and If your soul's tired
I'll play for you a tune
under the lights
of your neon harvest moon
oh just listen and you can cheer me
oh just listen and you can hear me
