Tears in the Tide

# **“Tears Into the Tide”** **[Verse 1]** I keep reaching for you with these trembling hands, But somehow I turn love into sinking sand. You tell me your story, I hear every word, But somewhere inside me, the meaning gets blurred. I get lost in the noise of the thoughts in my head, While the things left unspoken keep filling your chest. And every time I see that look in your eyes, I know I’m the reason you’re hurting tonight. **[Pre-Chorus]** If I could take back every scar I left behind, Trade every wrong for one more chance tonight, I would tear down every wall between us two— Anything to find my way back to you. **[Chorus]** So let my tears run into the tide, Carry this sorrow somewhere I can hide. I’m scared I’m becoming the reason you leave, The ghost of the love you once believed. If there’s still a spark underneath all this pain, I’ll fight through the thunder, I’ll dance in the rain. I don’t wanna lose you, I don’t wanna let go— But if love can’t save us, I need you to know… **I’m still holding on, even when you’re slipping away.** **[Verse 2]** I miss the man who could light up a room, Before all the shadows came crawling too soon. I’d give anything just to see that smile, To feel like your heart could rest for a while. But every conversation becomes another fight, Another piece of us disappearing from sight. You reach for an answer, I reach for defense, And somehow we’re standing on opposite ends. **[Pre-Chorus]** I know “I’m sorry” can’t undo what I’ve done, Can’t silence the damage or make it undone. But if there’s a heartbeat beneath all these scars, I’ll follow it back, no matter how far. **[Chorus]** So let my tears run into the tide, Carry this sorrow somewhere I can hide. I’m scared I’m becoming the reason you leave, The ghost of the love you once believed. If there’s still a spark underneath all this pain, I’ll fight through the thunder, I’ll dance in the rain. I don’t wanna lose you, I don’t wanna let go— But if love can’t save us, I need you to know… **I’m still holding on, even when you’re slipping away.** **[Bridge]** Maybe I’m broken in places you can’t see, Maybe I’ve been fighting the wrong enemy. Maybe the distance between you and me Is every mistake I refused to believe. And I would give anything, anything tonight, To turn back the clock and make everything right. But love isn’t love if it leaves you in pain, So tell me, my heart— **Do we fight, or walk away?** **[Breakdown]** I don’t want another goodbye, Don’t want to watch that fire die. I don’t want your last embrace To be the thing I can’t replace. If I’m losing you, then let me fall— But I’ll still reach for you through it all. **[Final Chorus]** So let my tears run into the tide, Wash all the wreckage from your side. I’m scared I’m becoming the reason you leave, The one who broke what I wanted to keep. But there’s still a spark underneath all this pain, And I’ll fight through the thunder, I’ll dance in the rain. I don’t wanna lose you, I don’t wanna let go— Even if tomorrow says it’s time to go… **I’ll love you enough to finally let you breathe, But I’ll spend every heartbeat hoping you choose me.** **[Outro]** If my tears reach the ocean tonight, Maybe they’ll carry my sorrow from sight. But if you turn around before I disappear… You’ll find me still waiting, Still loving you here.
