Taken by the Tide
Mystery Jets

(Verse 1)

Remember the time we shared our first cigarette?

Late at night Whisky and the Fountainhead

And though you were younger

Still you stole the first kiss

Well it seems so long ago

We were just kids

(Chorus)

Brother I thought that you would be there till the end

You were my rock upon which I could always depend Together we fought and never left each other's side

Brother I reached out but you were taken by the tide

Taken by the tide

(Verse 2)

We swam in cenotes in some southern Mexico

Though the water was warm

Well the cracks had started to show

You watched the Pacific Sunrise on New Year's Day

Next to me but your heart was a million miles away

(Chorus)

Brother I thought that you would be there till the end

You are my watchman, I said, You are my best friend

It's time for me to go, so softly you replied

Brother I reached out but you were taken by the tide

You were taken by the tide

(Bridge)

The lights are on

No one is home

You've gone away

The lights are on

No one is home

You've gone away

(Verse 3)

Brother I thought that you would be there till the end

You and I know we said some things we never meant Forever our dreams will burn upon the funeral pyre

Brother I reached out but you were taken by the tide.
