Lyrics
I woke up to a morning painted softly in the blue,
With the sunlight on the windows whispering something new.
I wandered through the quiet with a question in my mind,
Wondering how the world keeps changing when I'm one step behind.
I met a man of mirrors who was talking to the sky,
He said, "Every little moment is a truth you can't deny."
He smiled as if he knew me from a dream I'd left behind,
Then he vanished down the pavement like a thought I couldn't find.
(Chorus)
Oh, I'm turning with the tide,
Letting go of what I hide.
If the world keeps spinning round me,
I'll just take it in my stride.
Oh, I'm learning as I glide,
Through the waves I used to fight --
Now I'm turning with the tide.
I walked along the river where the ripples seemed to hum,
And the water told a story of the things I'd yet to become.
Every echo from the shoreline felt like something I once knew,
Like a letter from the future saying, "Time will carry you."
(Bridge)
And maybe all the answers aren't the ones I thought I'd need,
Maybe life is just a garden growing wild from scattered seed.
If I follow where it leads me, maybe peace is on the way --
In the colours of tomorrow painted on today.
(Chorus)
Oh, I'm turning with the tide,
Letting go of what I hide.
If the world keeps spinning round me,
I'll just take it in my stride.
Oh, I'm learning as I glide,
Through the waves I used to fight --
Now I'm turning with the tide.
So I'll wander through the daylight with a lighter kind of heart,
Let the moments fall around me like a brand-new place to start.
And if the road grows strange again, I'll trust the flow to guide --
'Cause I'm finally turning with the tide.
