Promised Tide Lyrics

I can't believe what I have seen

A girl that I know from a dream

She is the one, though she don't know

And I must find out where she's to go

I get the feeling that we met before

Although I do not think that she saw

Eyes open wide

Unleash the tide

As the ocean washed over me

And the setting sky took over me

I will sail upon this promised tide for days

But the promised tide may lie

About the promises it makes

When I find that which is naturally mine

I sail from the harbour out to the sea

I follow that map that I drew in a dream

To the land where you fell in love with me

To a place where you chose to be with me

I will sail upon this promised tide for days

But the promised tide may lie

About the promises it makes

I'm a sailor in search of land

I'm a player without a band

I'm a soldier in search of war

I have money, but I am poor

Land ahoy, I think I saw

The promised tide released me

Upon the shore, I got the feeling once more

As the girl from dreams stood over me
