[Verse 1: Anne Slinn & Bob Fay]

Close my eyes, feel the fire

Overwhelming fear and desire (So hard for you to stem the tide)

Wavering heart, the flames growing higher (Grab your bottle, get your coat, and hide)

[Verse 2: Anne Slinn & Bob Fay]

Lose what I have to test new water

My mind is awash 'round the thoughts of her (So hard for you to fill my eyes)

So much at stake, can't stay awake (Temptation for me and for you)

Drifting off (Out with the tide)

[Verse 3: Anne Slinn & Bob Fay]

Dreams come so easily

Filled with wasted fantasy

We're together until the tide (So hard for you to stem the tide)

Time enough to quell the day (Test the water, there's the place, fill your heart)

Tide's going out, here I am to stay (Temptation tide)
