[Verse 1]
On days like this we would linger by the ocean
When we would dream as we lay there side by side
I don't know why but one day you got the notion
To sit and watch for the changing of the tide

[Verse 2]
And then he came just to ask a foolish question (Foolish question)
The jealousy in my heart I could not hide (Could not hide)
Though I don’t believe it was really your intention
In your eyes I saw the changing of the tide

[Verse 3]
Now you've gone from me (Gone from me) all you left to me ( You left to me)
Is the restless sea (The restless sea) to keep me company (Ahh)
Now I'm here alone where we used to be together (Be together)
I can’t forget guess I never really tried (Really tried)

[Verse 4]
Fool that I am I'll go on and on forever
Just watching for the changing of the tide
(Fool that I am I'll go on and on forever)
Just watching for the changing of the tide
