Fight the Sea

The tide will rise and it will fall
And the moon will always circle overhead
You cannot stop the waves that form
Because in the end they push you back to shore

The clouds will gather in the atmosphere
And the sky will fall and tumble down my dear
The wind that blew around will cease
And the kites will fall back down into the trees

I am not the one that you want
I am not the one that you wanted
I am not the one that you want
I am not the one that you wanted to help you but you can't fight the sea

The world will spin, the days roll in
And we'll all grow old and wonder where we've been
You cannot stop the waves that form
Because in the end, they push you back to shore

I am not the one that you want
I am not the one that you wanted
I am not the one that you want
I am not the one that you wanted to help you but you can't fight the sea

Our fathers tried and they failed
Our fathers' fathers failed and they all drowned
Our fathers tried and they failed
Our fathers' fathers failed and they all drowned
