I can hear the wild waves break

This island of bone

Below the swell the stars are waking

No matter how much I shake

i'm gonna find home

Though I've been overtaken

By the tides of the moon

I'm swimming against

The tides of moon

You'll hear from me yet

I'll get to you soon



Savage cities on my trail

Won't leave me alone

Terrorize the song I'm veiling

Even though my arms are frail

I'm gonna find home

You know my faith ain't failing

'Lo the tides of moon

I'm swimming against

The tides of moon

I'll get to you yet

You'll hear from me soon



Follow every wave that traces my name

You know

That I have been detained

And I feel I could die



Swimming against

The tides of moon

You'll hear from me yet

I'll get to you soon

Swimming against

The tides of moon

You'll hear from me yet

I'll get to you

Get to you, oh...
