Let's go out tonight
let's take a bus line down to the water
let's go out tonight
far away from the city's laughter
feel the grains of sand between our toes
Let's sing songs tonight
let's sing songs and lets hold hands
let's sing songs tonight
we'll sing the song and make amends
I promise you'll remember how it goes
The water's going to rise
and wash away everything
so close your pretty eyes
evening's coming down again
and I know that you can't see past the bars
but try to remember there are stars
out there somewhere
Feel the tidal pull
feel it swirling round your ankles
feel the tidal pull
you know the world is thankless
you've already been adrift upon her seas
Hold my shaking hand
entwine your fingers
hold my shaking hand
let's linger here a minute
before the sweet release
The water's going rise
and wash away all we hold dear
so close your pretty eyes
the rushing wave is almost here
and I know that you can't see past the steel
but try to remember there are fields
lush and green to be seen
Feel my beating heart
place your hands upon my chest
feel my beating heart
the rushing waters never rest
not even at the closing of the day
Take one last deep breath
as the rushing waves wash over you
take on last deep breath
if it matters I loved you
as we return to the clay
The water's going rise
and wash away the skyscrapers
so open up your eyes
the rushing wave is almost here
and I know that you can't breath
but please believe me
the sun is rising on a new day
and the morning is hours away
