The Tide Lyrics


There are demons in the water
There are devils in the sea
There are dangers in the current
When the tide goes out of meI could drink you under the table
I could drink you out of town
I could drink you off the planet
Drink myself into the groundAnd I have nothing for you tonight
I have nothing for you tonight
I have nothing for you tonight
I have nothing for youI was made to be a good girl
Carried buckets made of stone
Full of envy, full of sorrow
On a tightrope all aloneAnd all the time I was on fire
I burned with every stride
And now I see this anger
Is the horse I choose to rideNow you say you want something nice from me
Well, if you find it, take it, it's on me
In the meantime don't bother me

The tide has washed the nice from meAnd I have nothing for you tonight
I have nothing for you tonight
I have nothing for you tonight
I have nothing for youIn the nothing are the voices
And the pictures of my life
In the nothing of the sky
Is an ocean made of lightIn the nothing of my silence
Is a sad-eyed little girl
On a tightrope she is singing
As she passes through this worldI have nothing for you tonight
I have nothing for you tonight
I have nothing for you tonight
I have nothing for you

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Lucy Kaplansky (born 1960) is a folk musician. Originally from Chicago, at the age of 18 she moved to New York City, where she became involved in the city's Greenwich Village folk music scene. In 1983, she decided to become a psychologist, enrolling in Yeshiva University. She continued playing music while completing her PhD, and began to have some success as part of a duo with Shawn Colvin. However, when they began to attract record company interest, Kaplansky declined, choosing instead to set up a private practice and become a staff psychologist at a New York hospital.
