Turning of the Tide

[Verse 1]
How many boys, one night stands
How many lips, how many hands have held you
Like I'm holding you tonight?

[Verse 2]
Too many nights, staying up late
Too much powder and too much paint
Oh, you can't hide from the turning of the tide

[Bridge]
Did they run their fingers up and down your shabby dress?
Did they find some tender moment there in your caress?

[Verse 3]
The boys all say you look so fine
They don't come back for a second time
Oh, you can't hide from the turning of the tide

[Bridge]
Poor little sailor boy, never set eyes on a woman before
Did he tell you that he'd love you, darling, for evermore?

[Verse 4]
Pretty little shoes, cheap perfume
Creaking bed in a hotel room
Oh, you can't hide from the turning of the tide

[Bridge]
Did they run their fingers up and down your shabby dress?
Did they find some tender moment there in your caress?

[Verse 5]
The boys all say you look so fine
They don't come back for a second time
Oh, you can't hide from the turning of the tide
