Fight the Tide Lyrics
Started with a smile
Hopin' dreamin'
Thought i saw you for a while
By the door
When you walked right in
Across the crowded floorWinter turned into a summer breeze
A hint of what could happen to me'Life became alive
Hopin' dreamin'
You looked straight into my eyes
When you asked dead calm
Who i was hiding from'I was stunned beyond belief
I was so lonely then, in some kind of grief
You broke your way into my heart
Your honesty, spoke to meSunday school and church on time
Backyards filled with neighbors and wine
Kids on the screen from days gone by
Soccer mom dance through the nights of julyWhen you feel it might be over
Slipping through your hands
You just look behind your shoulder
Turning back the timeYou know love is like a rover
Moving like a wave
Love remains, inside your veins, you can't fight the tide
You can't fight the tideWe were all so young
Hopin' dreamin'
Never thought the day would come
When life stood still, against our will
Frozen in timeWork all day from nine to five
Long for the weekends, to keep things alive
Listen to the voices deep inside
Even a lonely heart's got something to hide
