If I could buy the waterside
I'd send you a tide
For you to ride
And I'd never dry
It's just the way I am
If I could buy the morning tide
I'd send you a song
Of currents by and by
A lullaby
It's just the way I am
If I could dry those tears in your eyes
I'd send back the tide
To my dear riverside
My home skies
It's just the wave of what I've become
