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 Dont 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 dont try to come any closer, as I watch you get further away I cant feel anything and when I look at you I have nothing to say, anyway I wish our story had a middle and end Dont you wish that it were something else?
