Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
G C D
Have you ever felt the wind, a-whistling through your soul?
G C D
Seen the world spin round, like a story that’s been told.
Em C G D
We’re just travelers in this life, on a journey we must ride,
G C D
Riding on the tides of time, no place to hide.
(Chorus)
G C D
Oh, we’re just riding the time’s tides,
G C D
Caught in the current of life’s wild ride.
Em C G D
We’re just faces in the crowd, living loud,
G C D
On the tides of time, we ride, we hide.
(Verse 2)
G C D
Fleeting moments pass, like sand through our hands,
G C D
Memories etched in time, like footprints in the sand.
Em C G D
We hold on to what we can, let go of what we must,
G C D
On the tides of time, we trust.
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
Em C G D
In this great wide world, we’re just specks of dust.
G C D
In the grand scheme of time, we’re just a moment’s gust.
(Repeat Chorus)
(End)
G C D
Riding the time’s tides, until the day we die.
