After the Tide Lyrics by Stemm

Cross Roads

0

TIME KEEPS PUSHING FORWARD BACK
OH THESE CALLOUSED HANDS
WERE MADE TO TEAR DOWN THE WALLS THAT WERE BUILT TO LAST
BUT AS THE STORY GOES
NO YOU NEVER KNOW
THE SIGNS YOU SEE MIGHT JUST BE THE LIGHT YOU NEED ON THIS BROKEN ROAD

[Chorus:]
THESE CROSSROADS IN LIFE LEAD TO THE OCEAN AHEAD
THERE’S LEFT AND THERE’S RIGHT BUT I’M NEVER TURNING BACK
SEARCHING FOR SIGNS, WAITING FOR SOMETHING
LIKE WAVES WASHING OVER ME
AFTER THE TIDE I WON’T BE STANDING HERE
I DON’T BELIEVE IN FATE
I’M NOT BUILT THAT WAY
THE ROAD I TRAVEL IS A LIFE THAT’S BEEN LEFT UNPAVED
SOMETIMES I’VE LOST MY WAY
BROKEN DOWN AND STRAYED
BUT STARING BACK TO A PAST THAT JUST WON’T LAST IS WHEN I TURN AND SAY

[Chorus]
GOT MY FEET IN THE SAND - THE WIND IN MY HAIR
I’VE BEEN SEARCHING SO LONG
SO OUT OF PLACE HIDING AWAY LIKE A DIAMOND IN THE RUFF
I’VE TAKEN THE FALL – BEEN HELD OUT TO ALL
TILL I STALLED ON EMPTY
NEW WIND IN THESE SAILS
TO STEER ME THROUGH HELL TILL THE STORM BECOMES A CALM
STORM BECOMES CALM
THE STORM BECOMES CALM…
THROUGH ALL THAT’S PAST IS SAID AND DONE
I’M STILL HERE TO SING MY SONG
THROUGH THE NIGHT INTO THE DAWN
I’M STILL HERE TO SING MY SONG
