Songtext von The Tide

We were children of the sea In the water so carefree You and I went hand in hand Building castles in the sand Then one night the tide came in Pulled you out to sea and then I never saw you ever again I been searching far and wide you know Hoping that the waves will bring you home Everyday I'm clinging to the life we had before But the ocean gives the ocean takes Holding on was my mistake So now I think it's time I let you go You were always by my side Left our troubles far behind Skinny dipping stars so bright Underneath the pale moonlight You swam too far away from shore I saw the ocean swallow you whole Now the summer skies are still and cold But I been sailing miles against the tide Hoping that the waves give me a sign Dreaming of the day I'll finally meet you at the coast But looking back I realize Sometimes dreams were meant to die So you're someone I have to leave behind But the ocean gives the ocean takes Holding on was my mistake So now I think it's time I let you go
