[Verse 1] Water's rising high in the night Soon you and I shall die We've never had a place to hide So why should we mourn it [Chorus] Endless days are on my mind Time that we saved Was spent wilting on the vine [Verse 2] I remember you in a summer dress Walking in the waves at the water's edge I took your hand, we started to dance And I fell into a trance You're all that's good and kind to a man Something wild I could never understand But all we've ever had's a day that's going to end So let's keep living in the ending [Chorus]
