The Tide Is High
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.
The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
I'm not the kinda man who gives up just like that, oh no
It's not the things you do, that really hurts me bad
But it's the way you do the things, you do to me
I'm not the kinda man who gives up just like that oh no
The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
Number one, number one
Every man wants you to be his girl
But I'll wait my dear 'till it's my turn
I'm not the kinda man who gives up just like that, no
The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
The tide is high but I'm holding on
I'm gonna be your number one
