Moontides I was drivin' home And looked up at the Moon And, I thought, "Damn, again. Here it is, so soon." It seems like, just yesterday I saw it shining there In a little different place I saw it's eerie glare. It makes the blood in my veins Flow like the Oceans' tide And no matter where I am It seems I cannot hide. Maybe the fish inside of me Is trying to swim upstream To find out where I came from Or maybe where I've been. Some people don't believe it But, inside I know it's true That, those ol' Moontides Have to do, what I do. I guess I'm still evolving Trying to learn to Spawn Like every thing on earth Has done, since the worlds' dawn. We'll prob'ly be the species A million years from now Who'll be the ones extinct And They will wonder "How?". If I had the answers To where those Tides are flowing Then I might have a clue To where, I am going. But, I can't control it And guess, I'll never know Why I keep on fighting Lifetimes ebb and flow. The waves are getting smaller As they wash upon the beach And I guess until I drown I'll always have to reach.
