about

"​Tide Came In" is a song I wrote​ when we first​ learn​ed we were havin​g a baby. Interestingly enough, "Tide Came In" is one of my son's favorite songs -- I think he can remember me putting him to sleep with it with the drone rhythm. And it still does!

lyrics

A song came to my mind
all about how to be a man
I thought that all I had was time
so I just wrote it in the sand

And then then Tide came in, oh
I wrote it in the sand

The gods above
When they were coming up with their plan
All about the primacy of Love
But they just wrote it in the sand

And then the Tide came in, oh
They wrote it in the sand

[
And as the Tides come in
So they recede
And in the sand they leave behind
I’m just going to write the song again
]

A song came to my mind
all about how to be a man
I thought that all I had was time
so I just wrote it in the sand

And then then Tide Came In, oh
I wrote it in the sand

And then then Tide Came In, oh
I wrote it in the sand

And then then Tide Came In, oh
I wrote it in the sand
