The Tide

[Verse 1]

Mary used to dance by the old stone quay

Barefoot, wild, full of reverie

She traded songs for the subway lines

Coffee breaks and overtime

One last time I tried to bring her home

'Cause it's cold out there when you're swimming on your own

So I say to Mary-

[Chorus]

"Hey-ho, take my hand, dance with me in the golden sands"

Oh no, she's so bold, the waves roll out and she won't let go

Holding on too tight

She was washed out by the tide

Yeah, the tidе took Mary

Yeah, the tide took Mary

Yеah, the tide took Mary

[Verse 2]

I found her staring at the shore

Said you don't have to run no more

The tide don't care what you don't know

So come on love, just come home

One last time I tried to hold her close

'Cause it's cold out there when you're swimming on your own

So I said to Mary-

[Chorus]

"Hey-ho, take my hand, dance with me in the golden sands"

Oh no, she's so bold, the waves roll out and she won't let go

Holding on too tight

She was washed out by the tide

Yeah, the tide took Mary

Yeah, the tide took Mary

Yeah, the tide took Mary

[Bridge]

Way up in the night

She was washed out by the tide

Yeah the tide took Mary

[Chorus]

"Hey-ho, take my hand, dance with me in the golden sands"

Oh no, she's so bold, the waves roll out and she won't let go

Holding on too tight

She was washed out by the tide

Yeah, the tide took Mary
