Riptide Lyrics

Riptide lyrics

Riptide pulls me out into the open sea

My toes dangle for a place to stand and be



Oh starry night come and chart a course

Or send me a boat with an anchor set 

I'll pull myself ashore



Left with essence 

Of the moon and stars and night

There's no other route

I cannot take self to flight

I'll float here with the shrimp and brine

And on my cheeks and hair 

The salt will always shine

And with this phosphorescence map 

A sailor's chart a mermaid's hand 

Something i'll find



Oh starry night come and chart a course…
