lyrics

THE TIDE

Surrender in twilight
Sleep with the tide in a moonlit room
I levitate on a joyride
Solitary in the sea marooned

The push and pull is tireless
Child-like it wears me out

The waves roll over my heart now
I’m pulled apart now
Sheets of white so cold
Tease my heart now
I’m pulled apart now the tide’s in

So far the waves are kind
Their undertow feels safe
Waves become a way
To wash away the pain and doubt
That’s more than you’ll know
More than you care
More will flow again

The waves roll over my heart now
I’m pulled apart now
Sheets of white so cold
Tease my heart now
I’m pulled apart now the tide’s in
