Riptide

So bright
By the boardwalk tonight
Searching for seashells
Swept up in the moonlight
Swaying with trees in the breeze
They're so alive
Staring at the stars
Talking about the afterlife
Walking barefoot in the sand
Reach out for me you fall
and I take your hand
Takes some time to understand
I know what it takes to be your man
Wading out waist high
Careful not to get
Caught up in the riptide
