Description
I have a dear friend who is the most faithful letter writer (yes--actual paper letters)--and she writes to me-- the most terrible communicator in the world. So this song is for her--and everyone else that I dont keep in good contact with.

Lyrics
"Drifted"
Words and Music by Arin -2006
I dont ever use the phone
I rarely write you letters
I never visit you at home
I really should start acting better.
They say, "You never know what you have until its gone."
Id come visit you and we could talk
But by the time I'd get there I'd have forgotten all I had to say.
CAuse Ive stocked it up for so long anyway.
I save it for that "rainy day"
But its winter- and rain doesnt have time to play.
Far away have I drifted.
Too far inside myself.
I need to open up my heart-
And reach out to someone else.
My intentions are all there
But I bet you're thinking
"If she really cared she'd set aside the time-
all I need is just a freindly 'hi'
If it really is so hard- maybe what we had is gone--oh no (you see...)
Far away have I drifted.
Too far inside myself.
I need to open up my heart-
And reach out to someone else.
Oh-maybe this time I reaalllyy mail the letter.
Maybe this time I will pick up the phone.
I think Its time I get myself together.
Oh Why do I try to live my life alone?
Cause nobody really makes it all alone.
I dont ever use the phone
I rarely write you letters
I never visit you at home
I really should start acting better.
They say, "You never know what you have until its gone."
Far away have I drifted.
Too far inside myself.
I need to open up my heart-
And reach out to someone else.
Cause nobody really makes it all alone.
Cause nobody really makes it all alone.

There's so much good stuff going on here: lovely lyrics, great melody
(with a cracking chorus) strong arrangement and you have a great voice.
Some of the percussion sounds a bit clunky - maybe there's a bit too
much going on at times. This is just a niggle however - this is fantastic,
well done.
