Sam Carlson - Rising Tide Lyrics

How could I forget you in that long black skirt
Knew you were trouble knew that I could get hurt
My momma raised me right not to be no fool
But why with you then do I break all of my rules

I don't know why
Come and go with the rising tide
I don't know why
Come and go with the rising tide
Yeah it's rising rising rising rising
Up up up
I don't know why

Do you remember when we went for a moonlight swim
Better or worse you know I dove right in
A rising tide lifts every boat
But why with you then am I struggling to float

I don't know why
Come and go with the rising tide
I don't know why
Come and go with the rising tide
Yeah it's rising rising rising rising
Up up up
I don't know why

One thing baby you better understand
One way or another I'm gone be your man
Wanna hold you close but you take your time
But you better understand that you're always on my mind

I don't know why
Come and go with the rising tide
I don't know why
Come and go with the rising tide
Yeah it's rising rising rising rising
Up up up
Rising rising rising rising
Up up up
Rising rising rising rising
Up up up
I don't know why
