The tides of eve br Are rolling in, br Although the sun br Shines bright. br The gales of distruction br Looks bleak at morality br At the peak br Of the noonday sun. br The clouds cover br The graying skies br As man is windswept br Beneath the tides. br Sounds from the shore br Beats against the rocks. br Will man be man again? br Will we ever know? br The principles of life br Sets on Evening Tide br Who was really ready br For the lost virtues of this ride.
