Lyrics

Riptide Dance

I told my best friend and my brother
got it bad and I won’t recover
What little I can hear is deafening
and everything I see is threatening

With just a fantasy I’ll never fare
I need your smile and your derriere
Don’t you ever even think of me?
in all the salty flavors I could be

And I didn’t have to see her place
For the waves to crash down on my face
From the open of this ocean dance
Felt a riptide pull
At my shadow of a chance

I asked my brother and my best friend
Could it be or what could it have been?
Just a sad song never ends
Consequence of every filthy sin

I feel guilty and I don’t know why
Nothing holds me to a kiss goodbye
And I didn’t even make a pass
touch the bottom of her hourglass

And I feel no closer to her bed
while her every word
spins round my head
If it’s just another riptide dance
swear I’ll spin her around
if she gives me half a chance

Give me half a chance

And if I’ve gotta live a lonely life
I’ll take the memories of any kind
No need to stop and thank me for my time
I will find my day
Or saunter away

Waiting for the day to give her head
While she sweetly turns me from her bed
Even if it’s just a riptide dance
Swear I’ll turn her out
If she gives me half a chance

Give me half a chance
