The clouds are drifting
As the sand is shifting
Along the shoreline
And as the sun sets
The sound of darkness
Is there for evermore
I've walked through troubled waters
And out on my journey before
But to tell you the truth
I can't turn around anymore
It's an everyday story
To those familiar with pain
But I'm sure you don't want to hear
That old ending again
Now the tide's coming in
I think it's time to go
Yes the tide's coming in
And I've got nowhere to go
Oh the tide is rising
And I've got to go
As the sand is shifting
Along the shoreline
And as the sun sets
The sound of darkness
Is there for evermore
I've walked through troubled waters
And out on my journey before
But to tell you the truth
I can't turn around anymore
It's an everyday story
To those familiar with pain
But I'm sure you don't want to hear
That old ending again
Now the tide's coming in
I think it's time to go
Yes the tide's coming in
And I've got nowhere to go
Oh the tide is rising
And I've got to go
