Before The Tide
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Before the tide, before the tide...
I knew that you were about to say those words again,
I shut off my ears and sung this tune in my head
I wish our story had a middle and end
Don't you wish that it were something else?
But just close your eyes, the tide is rising any minute,
Close your eyes, the tide is coming any minute
Now,
Please don't try to come any closer, as I watch you get further away
I can't feel anything and when I look at you I have nothing to say, anyway
I wish our story had a middle and end
Don't you wish that it were something else?
But just close your eyes, the tide is rising any minute
Close your eyes, the tide is rising any minute
Close your eyes, just close your eyes...
Before the tide, before the tide...
