[Verse 1]
Water's rising high in the night
Soon you and I shall die
We've never had a place to hide
So why should we mourn it

[Chorus]
Endless days are on my mind
Time that we saved
Was spent wilting on the vine

[Verse 2]
I remember you in a summer dress
Walking in the waves at the water's edge
I took your hand, we started to dance
And I fell into a trance
You're all that's good and kind to a man
Something wild I could never understand
But all we've ever had's a day that's going to end
So let's keep living in the ending

[Chorus]
