Tide Rolls In - Clare Bowen

All I wanted, early in then

When all the birds fly, say it again

A saw a man straight across the field

Off in the distance at the break of the day

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

Twice each day, we’re turning

His cheeks were red

My eyes was burning

His heart I ran

And on that day, when I can’t leave

Since then the water went

Taking him, taking him away

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

I’d bide my time

With him by the sea

Twice each day returning

But not for me, no not for me

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

Well I wanna hold him, only didn’t see him

His cheeks are red, I don’t know how he was here

My eyes were burning only for me

And I wanna hold him, hold him, breathe him, breathe him, see him

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

Tide rolls in, tide rolls out

I’m gonna, gonna, gonna, breathe him, see him

And where I’m going I can’t breathe him, breathe him, see him
