Tides Lyrics

You leave with the tide
And I can't stop you leaving
I can see it in your eyes
Some things that lost their meaning

Devote to me
Alone with me
Say with me
"Why would you ever want to leave?"

You leave with the tide
And I can't stop you leaving
I can see it in your eyes
Some things that lost their meaning

Fade out of view
I wouldn't do that to you
I wouldn't just leave us alone
When we could be close, close, close

Hold me close when you could leave us alone
Why would you just leave us alone
When we have been close, close

You leave with the tide
And I can't stop you leaving
I can see it in your eyes
Some things that lost their meaning

You leave with the tide
And I can't stop you leaving
I can see it in your eyes
Some things that lost their meaning

What is the Meaning of Tides?

Ever felt the sting of someone slipping away despite your best efforts? This song captures that heart-wrenching moment when you realize a relationship is fading. The lyrics convey a deep sense of helplessness as one partner watches the other drift away, much like the tide. There's a poignant plea for closeness and an aching question: why leave when we could still be something special? It's about longing for connection, grappling with change, and the painful acceptance that some things lose their meaning over time.
