I need a new song
Shift it all around like the ocean
When the riptide gets you down, take some
From the ones you love in the old town
When the riptide gets you down, new song
Shift it all around like the ocean
When the riptide gets you down, take some
From the ones you love in the old town
When the riptide gets you down, sing
I can still breathe, I can still walk
I can still see you, Neil, just walking up the dock
I remember when I carved my name into this cedar tree
Sing while I'm walking
Sebby's on the rocks with a new reel flashing
Casting as he talks, he came home from the city
When they choked out all of his dreams
And I guess you could say that this is me
And I guess that these folks are the only ones I believe
Everywhere I go, I'm going to the ocean
Every river flows into the ocean
The water in my soul, it's going to the ocean
Sing the great unknown, I'm singing to the ocean
Sing, I can still breathe, I can still walk
I still see you, Neil, just walking up the dock
I remember when I carved my name into this cedar tree
Sing while I'm walking
Sebby's on the rocks with a new reel flashing
Casting as he talks, he came home from the city
When they choked out all of his dreams
And I guess you could say that this is me
And I guess that these folks are the only ones I believe
I need a new song, shift it all around like the ocean
When the riptide gets you down
