Tides of Time

Two more gone missing
Two  more swept away
Two  young lives lost on this dark and stormy day
They phoned up their mothers
They phoned up the patrol
They  trolled along the bottom, but they never found a soul

The  tide comes in
The tide goes out
The  tide comes in
The tide goes out
As you know
The tides of time

Onlookers  look and they slowly move along
Nobody's found dawn after dawn
Silence sets in when new headlines imprint
Rarely in thoughts now time and time again

The tide comes in
The tide goes out
The tide comes in
The tide goes out
The tide comes in
The tide goes out
The tide comes in
The tide goes out
As you know
The tides of time

A pity they should pass
Nobody heard the splash
Nothing seems to wash ashore
Just driftwood and trash
A pity they should pass
Nobody seems to ask
They're thrashing now, they're gnashing now
They're gasping for their rights
They're still alive

The tides of time
The tides of time
The tides of time
