lyrics
I can't quite put my finger on it
I was wilder in my dreams
Open hearted, full of promise
But, nothing's what it seems
The tide it turned against me
As it turns for everyone
A surge of loaded questions
Whose answers never come
Though carefree on the outside
I feel we've lost our sight
That harbour light once guiding us
Won't brightly burn tonight
The tide will turn against you too
It turns for everyone
We’re promised nothing, but to question
No answers ever come
You can't quite put your finger on it
Nothing's what it seems
The ebb and flow of wretched promise
Still tidal in our dreams
The tide has turned against you
No anchor for you to moor
The pull of loaded questions
Wrecks dreams on rocky shore
