Temptation Tide Lyrics - Sebadoh

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) 

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) 

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)
