Feet in where the water breathes
Cold enough to make me weak
You don’t call, you don’t leave
Still you washing over me
Lines we drew along the shore
Don’t mean anything no more
Every time I think you’re gone
You come back like nothing’s wrong
Pull me in, let me go
You don’t even let me know
Tide goes out, tide comes in
You don’t lose, you don’t win
Take me close, push me far
Never sure of what we are
Tide goes out, tide comes in
Same place that we’ve always been
I don’t fight it anymore
You just wash me to the shore
Salt still sitting on my skin
From the last time you came in
Every touch just leaves a trace
Then it slowly fades away
I don’t chase you when you run
I just wait for what you’ve done
’Cause I know you circle back
Like you always move like that
No control, no escape
Every time it feels the same
Tide goes out, tide comes in
You don’t lose, you don’t win
Take me close, push me far
Never sure of what we are
Tide goes out, tide comes in
Same place that we’ve always been
I don’t fight it anymore
You just wash me to the shore
If I leave, would you stay
Or just drift another way
If I stay, would you change
Or just keep me in your waves
Tide goes out, tide comes in
Pull me under once again
Say it’s done, say goodbye
Then you’re back here by my side
Tide goes out, tide comes in
Wearing down the edge I’m in
Piece by piece, I let it go
You just take me with the flow
No more lines, no more shore
Just the waves and nothing more
