Tidal Waves Lyrics & Tabs by Ketil Bjørnstad
Tidal Waves
guitar chords lyrics
sudden from out the vast bewildered sea,
fiece tidal waves, like unchained monsters, break
sudden from out the vast bewildered sea,
fiece tidal waves, like unchained monsters, break
in cruel clutch the mightest ships they take,
tossing them high in fiendish jubilee
leaving them far inland, stranded hopelessly,
worse wrecks than sharpest rock of reef can make.
at record of such wave, strange fancies wake,
half wake, within me, as if memory
at record of such wave, strange fancies wake,
half wake, within me, as if memory
recalled some life in other world
recalled some life in other world
there rolls a dangerous sea,
recalled some life in other world
recalled some life in other world
there rolls a dangerous sea,
unseen, on which are borne
by fiercer tidal waves brave women's souls
to barren inlands, where, too strong to die,
even of thirst and loneliness and scorn,
like ghastly stranded wrecks, long years they lie
