    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

The place that you come from
Only the world outside seemed real
Kept on thinking you were trapped or haunted
Every instinct said to flee
Then you sold your rings and your records
There the pretty story ends
Everything just came and went
You knew you couldn’t return

It’s over, it’s over, it’s over for Caroline now

You made it to Tombstone
Took any room that was spare
So now you’re beat, well just a little
Was that what you said?
You said “I remember when I thought I could have it all”
Everything just came and went
You knew you couldn’t return

It’s over, it’s over, it’s over for Caroline now

Regret hits you sometimes
Then comes a morning when you can’t look back for anybody
So much abandoned...
Everything just came and went
No one ever returns

It’s over, it’s over, it’s over for Caroline now
All the towns ago, all the things that mattered
They came and went
I can recall your name,
I can recall your face
