Lyrics Tygers of Pan Tang

Tygers of Pan Tang

Tides

The shallow waters lopped upon the rocks,

The shadows moved as the moon shone down,

I saw your features as plain as the day.

I heard your voice in sound of waves.

The mighty tides breathe in and out again,

I heard the surf crashing closer,

And in that moment you were there by my side,

As if the years had never flown past.

That was a long time ago,

I don't want to dwell in the past.

That sas a long time ago,

Now I must escape from your ghost.

The minutes pass, the illusion still holds,

My fingers runnig down my spine,

And iin the east I see the first of dawn.

And with the light I feel you slip away
