See the lights come ashore
Through a window to the last mile
Racin' with the risin' tide to my father's door
See my shadow from below
Racin' from the risin' tide to my father's door
Racin' from the risin' tide to my father's door
I've been lyin' in the bright lights
Never wanted from another man
I'll be standing with my dyin' bell
Racin' with the risin' tide to my father's door
Little picture on the wall
From the banks to the far side
Drownin' in the risin' tide in my father's door
Drownin' in the risin' tide in my father's door
Never wanted from my own
If you care to come along
