When The Tide Comes

It's gonna be time 

before I can hold your hand

I know it sucks but 

I am hoping that you understand...

 

There's gonna be some mountains to climb

There may be some tidal waves

You're gonna need some patience now

I'm gonna have to stay away...

Under the same moon we will lie

You may feel me in the distance now

You can hear my footsteps stop

As I start to bow out...

I'm gonna have to stay away...

I'm gonna have to try to behave

I'm gonna need some patience now

I may even need to leave town.

I have gotta quarter in my pocket

The jokes on me because I never saw it

I could have won at heads and tails

Double headed, it was never gonna fail.

But that's a bet lost now. 

The stars aligned to trick my head

My mind had fallen with the words you said

And I was drowning in the world you call home

Now I have to walk away all alone...

There's gonna be some mountains to climb

There will be some heavy tidal waves

I need to cross it before I am out of time

I need, I need a distant getaway

The waves will come on crashing down

I won't be the fodder in that midst

I'm removing myself from the problem now

So you can live like you insist. 

 

It's gonna be time before I can hold your hand

It's come to this, I'm sorry  

I am hoping that you understand...
