Like a dream on the ocean
Always drifting away
And I can't catch up
She just skips away on the tideSometimes a great notion
Can lead you astray
So weak to devotion
So strong to desireCome on baby, baby won't you let me ride
Take me off on your sail boat ride
Come on Angels, are on your side
She slips away oh, never staysLike mercury gliding
Silver teardrop that falls
And I can't hold her
Through my fingers, she's goneThrough my fingers, she's gone
Through my fingers, she's gone
Through my fingers, she's gone
Through my fingers, she's gone
Through my fingers, she's gone
Through my fingers, she's goneAt the foot of the mountain
Such a long way to climb
How will I ever get up there
But I know I must tryCome on baby, baby won't you let me ride?
Take me off on your sail boat ride
Come on now Angels, are on your side
But she slips away oh, and never staysLike a dream on the ocean
Always drifting away
And I can't catch upShe just skips away on the tide
Just slips away on the tide
She just slips away on the tide
Aah skip away, she glides, she glides
