He's praying the tide will come out and wash away his sins
Yes, hoping that tide will come out and wash away where he's been
He can't escape eternity paying for his life
Can't escape eternity paying with his life
So hold tight he's slipping away
With his hands bound
Hold tight he's begging you please
Don't let him drown; Don't let him down
He's longing for this storm to pass though it rages on
Yes praying that dawn finally breaks to bask in it's light
He can't escape eternity paying for what he's done
Can't escape eternity praying for love
So hold tight he's slipping away
With his hands bound
Hold tight he's begging you please
Don't let him drown; Don't let him down
You didn't hold tight so he slipped with his hands bound
You didn't hold tight, though he begged
"Don't let me drown"
You let him down
