Like a dream on the ocean Always drifting away And I can't catch up She just skips away - on the tide Sometimes a great notion Can lead you astray So weak to devotion So strong to desire
Baby, baby, baby won't you let me ride Take me off on your sail boat ride Come on now angels, are on your side But she slips away - oh, and never stays
Like mercury gliding A silver teardrop that falls And I CAN'T HOLD ON Through my fingers she's gone
At the foot of the mountain Such a long way to climb How will I ever get up there - Though I know I must try
Baby, baby, baby won't you let me ride Take me off on your sail boat ride Come on now angels, are on your side But she slips away - oh, and never stays
Like a dream on the ocean Always drifting away And I can't catch up She just skips away - on the tide
She just slips away - on the tide Skips away - as she glides
