Lyrics Robert Palmer

Robert Palmer

Riptide

Live was as calm as a summer sea

When silver moonlight beams

And then a new love beckoned me

Wrecking the ship of my dreams

Riptide caught in a riptide, torn between two loves

The old and the new

Riptide lost in a riptide

Where will it take me what shall I do?

My heart is tossed on a sea of emotion

One love offers romance

The other devotion

A new love is calling

The old love is pleading

I'm caught in a riptide what shall I do?

Riptide caught in a riptide, torn between two loves

The old and the new

Riptide lost in a riptide

Where will it take me what shall I do?

My heart is tossed on a sea of emotion

One love offers romance

The other devotion

A new love is calling

The old love is pleading

I'm caught in a riptide what shall I do?
