"Riptide" lyrics
"Riptide"
(originally by Vance Joy)
I was scared of dentists
And the dark
I was scared of pretty girls
And starting conversations
Oh all my friends
Are turning green
You're the magician's assistant
In their dream
Ah-ooh-ooh-ooh ah-ahh-ah-ah
And they come unstuck
Lady running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you
When you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing
The words wrong
There's this movie
That I think you'll like
This guy decides to quit his job
And heads to New York City
This cowboy's
Running from himself
And she's been living
On the highest shelf
Ah-ooh-ooh-ooh ah-ahh-oh
And they come unstuck
Lady running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left-hand man
I love you
When you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing
The words wrong
Ah-ooh
Lady running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left-hand man
I love you
When you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing
The words wrong

Alex Goot & Andie Case - "Easy On Me" There ain't no gold in this river
That I've been washing my hands in forever
I know there is hope in these waters
But I can't bring myself to swim
When I am drowning in this silence
Baby, let me in...
Kina Grannis & Jome - "Gold" Late December, the sound of the embers burning
A bitter night, the winter light, the eye of the storm

John De Sohn - "Umbrellas" If I could run
I'd find a way to hide away
I'd lie back down and go to sleep
My thoughts are loud
They're killing me, they're filling me
A flood inside, I'm sinking deep
But we all fall, sometimes...
JP Cooper - "If The World Should Ever Stop" I know the times are changing
I know the times are strange
No one knows about tomorrow
I know that nothing's certain
Some things you can't explain
Time is stolen, time is borrowed
All I know is I, I...
