    The Apartments "drift", CD, Digipack with booklet

    "drift" was universally praised by the critic when released in 1993. Composed in London where Peter Walsh then lived, it is a collection of unclassified dark pieces, a timeless masterpiece, the remarkable class of a songwritter, the obsessional record of an aching mind.

    Sold out for many years, it became necessary to release this one again. Three unreleased songs are present on this remastered version (tape recorded demos from 1986: ’You Wanna Cry, STOP, I’m the Staying Kind’, which were composed as a response to the rumour saying that Dusty Springfield was going back on stage. Peter wanted her to appropriate this song).

    Includes unlimited streaming of drift via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

Hurry, hurry, hurry...

You hurry on through streets in the mist
In the strung-out world of old memory
Forgetting’s a gift
A yellow rose or one white ribbon
Some everyday little thing triggers this

Could I hide here, a little while?
It feels so good to get inside
Well what else could I do?

Bored with yourself, don’t feel complete
In slow motion close your eyes. All rushes die
You’re left with this need
You milk your drama for all it’s worth
Like you’re the only one who’s ever been this hurt

Could I hide here, a little while?
It feels so good to get inside
Well what else could I do?
Outside as the daylight fades
You call her name, you’ve died a little ever since
Well what else would you do?

Could I hide? A little while?
Could I hide? A little while?

Oh could I, oh could I hide here, a little while?
It feels so good to get inside
Well what else could I do?
