I don't believe in miracles
If it's all the same by you
Your wishes would come true
If I had my say
Whether it's right or wrong
The words of every song
Remind us of a love we knew
Where love should not go wrong
In yesterday
Hang on ye drifters now
You've got so much to go and gamble on
Watch out for the shifting sand
Wherever you may ramble
ย
Even now as I look back
And see all that's come to pass
I can't remember how it was I got here
Just look around this place
There's a smile on every face
We're somewhere at the afterglow
Out there among the stars
Out there among the bars
Hang on ye drifters now
You've got places to go and people to meet
Watch out for the shifting tide
Wherever you may travel
ย
I know I should not complain
Because life's been good to me
It feels real good to be stranded on my own
Be that as it may be
We are what we are
I'll find you in the afterglow
Out there among the stars
Of yesteryear
Hang on ye drifters now
You've got so much to go and gamble on
Watch out for the shifting sand
Wherever you may ramble
All you drifters now
You've got places to go and people to meet
Watch out for the shifting tide
Wherever you may travel
Wherever you may travel
