DEL AMITRI - As Soon As The Tide Comes In lyrics

rate me

You'd better get some sleep for a change

Before tomorrow brings you down

By three o'clock they'll both be sitting on that plane

Hopelessly honeymoon bound

And I hope no one asks you to kiss this bride

Or tie tin cans to the car

And if friends and relations mingle outside

You can linger at the bar

So bring on the rainclouds and block out the moon

Let the action begin

You'll feel like some soap opera star

Predictably hitting the booze

With your standard issue broken heart

You step into your Saturday shoes

And you might feel better if you slapped her face

Or slipped some pills in his wine

But instead some voice in your head keeps saying

You'll look back and laugh sometime

So bring on the rainclouds and block out the moon

Let the action begin

Cos it's as sure as sunrise and as sure as time

The bride will be changing and you will be crying

And it will be raining as soon as the tide comes in

So put on your lipstick and check that you hat's straight too

Cos if they can go through with it you can do it too

So bring on the rainclouds and block out the moon

Let the action begin

Cos it's as sure as sunrise and as sure as time

The bride will be changing and you will be crying

And it will be raining as soon as the tide comes in

And it will be raining as soon as the tide comes in
