Hell and High Water - Tall Heights

Through hell and high water we have said we’d swim,

Of all we’ve thought, for all we’ve seen we’re in

Through hell and high water

Over under, we would take the bridge

That salty wonder takes us bit by bit

And we’re its plunder, like the Cape’s thin wrist

And left to ponder: fold or flex a fist?

Through hell and high water

When storms bring waves and

When waves bring tides in

Are we bold enough to think we’d win?

When storms bring winds and

When winds bring the hurricane

There’s nowhere she wants she’s never been

Our levy’s so much stronger now from testing them

But are they strong for what we will begin?

Peninsula is fading

Oh, bright city’s gauging

While the old man’s hardwood floors remove again

When storms bring waves and

When waves bring tides in

Are we bold enough to think we’d win?

When storms bring winds and

When winds bring the hurricane

There’s nowhere she wants she’s never been

So open up your door and let her in

Bridges falling down, be patient

In this tidal town, keep wading

When storms bring waves and

When waves bring tides in

Are we bold enough to think we’d win?

When storms bring winds and

When winds bring the hurricane

There’s nowhere she wants she’s never been

The wise men open up and let her in

That sea ain’t waging war

It’s just another storm

Then she will leave and you’ll be standin'
