[Verse 1]
Every man needs a hammer
Or a mountain to climb
A damsel to rescue in the nick of time
I know now the answer
Was buried all along
And all I have is heartache and a song
[Verse 2]
See I once loved a woman
And she shined bright like the sun
Never how truly I could love someone
And then one day she figured
It was time to move along
And all I have is heartache and a song
[Chorus 1]
Well my song, it goes on just like the ocean
It might come some days, but it never really dies
All I tried to say remains unspoken
And the melody keeps waiting for the tides...
[Verse 3]
You were stuck inside the summer
The heat it beat down strong
The sweat upon my brow I've known my whole life long
You'd think after all my toil
I'd still hold her in my arms
But all I have is heartache and a song
[Chorus]
Yeah, my song, it goes on just like the ocean
It might come some days, but it never really dies
All I tried to say remains unspoken
And the melody keeps waiting for the tides...
Interlude
[Verse 4]
Well, I climbed that weary mountain
I tried to build a home
I tried to save her heart and hold it to my own
I thought I had the answers
But she went and proved me wrong
Now all I have is heartache and a song
[Chorus]
Yeah, my song, it goes on just like the ocean
It might come some days, but it never really dies
All I tried to say remains unspoken
And the melody keeps waiting, keeps waiting for the tides...
Yeah, my song, it goes on just like the ocean
It might come some days, but it never really dies
All I tried to say remains unspoken
And the melody keeps waiting for the tides...
