Tall Heights - Hell and High Water Lyrics
Through hell and high water we have said we’d swim,Of all we’ve thought, for all we’ve seen we’re inThrough hell and high waterOver under, we would take the bridgeThat salty wonder takes us bit by bitAnd we’re its plunder, like the Cape’s thin wristAnd left to ponder: fold or flex a fist?Through hell and high waterWhen storms bring waves andWhen waves bring tides inAre we bold enough to think we’d win?When storms bring winds andWhen winds bring the hurricaneThere’s nowhere she wants she’s never beenOur levy’s so much stronger now from testing themBut are they strong for what we will begin?Peninsula is fadingOh, bright city’s gaugingWhile the old man’s hardwood floors remove againWhen storms bring waves andWhen waves bring tides inAre we bold enough to think we’d win?When storms bring winds andWhen winds bring the hurricaneThere’s nowhere she wants she’s never beenSo open up your door and let her inBridges falling down, be patientIn this tidal town, keep wadingWhen storms bring waves andWhen waves bring tides inAre we bold enough to think we’d win?When storms bring winds andWhen winds bring the hurricaneThere’s nowhere she wants she’s never beenThe wise men open up and let her inThat sea ain’t waging warIt’s just another stormThen she will leave and you’ll be standin’
