Drifting Away.
DRIFTING AWAY .
DSIFT TNG away from each other , Silently drifting apart Nothing bet-ween but the world ' s cold screen , Nothing lost but a heart .
Only two lives divided , More and more each clay , Only one soul from another soul Steadily drifting aAvay . Only a woman ' s heart striving
Bitterly hard Avith its doom , Only a hand small and tender Slipp ing aAvay in the gloom . Nothing of doubt or of wronging : Nothing that either can cure ; Nothing to shame , nothing to blame ,
Nothing to do but endure . The world cannot move less quietly , Both time ancl man must change ; Nothing here that is worth a tear , Love failing , noways strange . Drifting aiA'ay from each other ,
Steadily drifting apart , No Avrong to each that the world cannot reach , Nothing lost but a heart !
