Lucy Kaplansky - The Tide Lyrics
There are demons in the waterThere are devils in the seaThere are dangers in the currentWhen the tide goes out of meI could drink you under the tableI could drink you out of townI could drink you off the planetDrink myself into the groundChorusAnd I have nothing for you tonightI have nothing for you tonightI have nothing for you tonightI have nothing for youI was made to be a good girlCarried buckets made of stoneFull of envy, full of sorrowOn a tightrope all aloneAnd all the time I was on fireI burned with every strideAnd now I see this angerIs the horse I choose to rideNow you say you want something nice from meWell if you find it, take it, it's on meIn the meantime don't bother meThe tide has washed the nice from meChorusIn the nothing are the voicesAnd the pictures of my lifeIn the nothing of the skyIs an ocean made of lightIn the nothing of my silenceIs a sad-eyed little girlOn a tightrope she is singingAs she passes through this worldChorus
