| | | DRIFTWOOD am I, | |
| And oblivion seems like the sea | |
| That comes creeping, creeping | |
| Nearer to me. | |
| |
| Some day a wave | 5 |
| Will pass all the others by, | |
| And come lapping, lapping | |
| To where I lie. | |
| |
| Then on the tide | |
| I shall be taken out to sea, | 10 |
| Until nothing, nothing | |
| Is left of me. | | | | |
