Racing The Tide

I'm so close I'm almost inside
Won't be long before the mystery is mine
I'm so close I'm almost inside
But there were times I hung my head and cried
I'm so close I'm almost inside, I'm so close Racing the Tide
I'm so close I'm almost inside
A dream unchained that can't escape my mind
I'm so close I'm almost inside But there wre times there was no
end in sight
I'm so close I'm almost inside
Those big waves we always knew I'd ride
I'm so close I'm almost inside I'm so close Racing the Tide
