I saw a ship acress the ocean line
Then it began to fade away
But to my surprise and my astonished eyes
It was a Tidal Wave
Look out here comes a Tidal Wave
Look out it's coming to take you away
Look out it's going to invade your home
Look out or you'll be lost for evermore
On the crust of darkness they didn't hear my word
It was the gospel sung unheard
It was my warning my warning from the past
And now my spell is cast at last
For all those people that I tried to save
Are at rest in their shallow graves
And now their bodies float down the River Styx
And they dock on the Stygian Shore
Evermore
Then it began to fade away
But to my surprise and my astonished eyes
It was a Tidal Wave
Look out here comes a Tidal Wave
Look out it's coming to take you away
Look out it's going to invade your home
Look out or you'll be lost for evermore
On the crust of darkness they didn't hear my word
It was the gospel sung unheard
It was my warning my warning from the past
And now my spell is cast at last
For all those people that I tried to save
Are at rest in their shallow graves
And now their bodies float down the River Styx
And they dock on the Stygian Shore
Evermore
