[Verse] The waves They tell a tale so old Of waters silver Of youth to hold I drank my fill A sailor bold But now I never fade [Chorus] Oh the tide It swells in sin Forever young Forever thin But what’s the cost of this cursed skin? The tide It never ends [Verse 2] The moon She mocks with her hollow glow The stars They laugh at the years I've known The sea my cradle My endless woe I walk where mortals fear The unknown [Prechorus] No wrinkles No pain But the joy is slain [Chorus] Oh the tide The tide It swells in sin. Forever young Forever thin But what’s the cost of this cursed skin? The tide The tide It never ends [Bridge] I’ve seen a thousand sunsets burn A million waves They twist and churn I long for rest I ache I yearn But the fountain won’t let go
