High tide summer in the city The kids are looking pretty But isn't it a pity that the sunshine Is followed by the thunder with thoughts of going under And is it any wonder Why the sea is calling out to me I seem to spend my whole life running From people who would be The death of you and me Cause I can feel the storm clouds Sucking up my soul High tide life is getting faster And no one has the answer I try to face the day though In a new way The bottom of a bottle Is every man's apostle Let's run away together You and me Forever we'd be free Free to spend our whole lives running From people who would be The death of you and me Cause I can feel the storm clouds Sucking up my soul Let's run away and see Forever we'd be free Free to spend our whole lives running From people who would be The death of you and me Cause I can feel the storm clouds coming I'm watching my TV or is it watching me I see another new day dawning It's rising over me my mortality And I can feel the storm clouds Sucking up my soul
