The Death of You and Me (lyrics)

High tide,
summer in the city
the kids are looking pretty
but isn't it a pitty that
the sunshine
is followed by thunder
with thoughts of going under
and is it any wonder why the sea

is calling out to me,
I seem to spend my
whole life running
from people who can be
the death of you and me,
'cause I can feel the
storm clouds
soaking up my soul

High tide
Life is getting faster
No one has the answer
I'm trying to face the day
In a new way
the bottom of a bottle
is every man's apostle
Let's run away together you and me

Forever we'd be free,
free to spend our
whole lives running
from people who would be
the death of you and me,
'cause I can feel the
storm clouds
soaking up my soul

Let's run away to see
Forever we'd be free,
free to spend our
whole lives running
from people who would be
the death of you and me
'cause I can feel the
storm clouds coming

I'm watching my TV,
or is it watching me?
I see another new day
dawning
It's rising over me
and my mortality
and I can feel the
storm clouds
soaking up my soul
