lyrics

The Tide

Some things cannot be held
some thing so illusive
Holding on too tight
careful not to lose it

You're like the tide
coming and going
you're like the tide
you're up or you're down
in or out
ebb or flowing
I can't keep up
I can't hold on.

Some things are always off
far in the distance
Some things are always lost
some things aren't where you
left them

You're like the tide
coming and going
you're like the tide
you're up or you're down
in or out
ebb or flowing
I can't keep up
I can't hold on.

Like holding on to water
like holding on to air
like holding on to rainbows
something that's not there.

Some things cannot be held
some thing so illusive
Holding on too tight
careful not to lose it

You're like the tide
coming and going
you're like the tide
up or you're down
in or out
ebb or flowing
I can't keep up
I can't hold on.
