While The Tide Is High Lyrics

Chrysler While The Tide Is High

In the winding, blinding hour
between the winter and the fall
Roses springing from the dead land
and the rain has seized to fall
How come you look so ashen?
You've been sitting out all day
And you park has turned so quiet,
all the birds have flown away
Meanwhile the weeks are passing by
Early May to late July
And the sky's not blue forever
Get up while the tide is high
I know it's sometimes hard to walk straight

and to think and talk and breathe
Everyone's so t-shirt righteous
Everybody holds the key
And it hurts to say that you don't care,
but I wouldn't feel ashamed
Because I know what's there inside you, love
And that's where these words are aimed
So if you want him, take him now
And he'll be yours before you try
I can't tell you how it works, babe
Just do it while the tide is high
Just like time can't be defied
Just like love can't be denied
Miracles will happen
only while the tide is high
