Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The red moon is rising behind you
The ocean is pounding away
I held up a light to the smoke
But the wind blows, blows it away
[Verse 2]
And the night is cold
And the clouds go by
Tomorrow morning
I hope to be home by your side
[Verse 3]
The riptide is pulling me under
I'm drifting, drifting away
Tomorrow the sun will be brighter
The water will rise, wash us away
[Verse 4]
But the stars are cold
And the air is bright
I see you now
You shine like the steel on my knife
The darkness is wrapped all around me tonight
[Verse 5]
I miss you
I miss you, there's no one else
I do
I do
