Time... rolling along with the waves,

A thousand miles away

Holding you close in the rain,

Seems just like yesterday

Lost... hope in a faraway place

And in my hand remains,

A black and white print of a face,

I'll never see again

I gave my life to save her

The ocean turned to red

In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all

Cut down like lambs at slaughter,

Good men were left for dead

In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all

Love... served until death do us part,

I'm drifting in the dark

Wounded and wishing to fall,

Into your faithful arms

I gave my life to save her

The ocean turned to red

In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all

Cut down like lambs at slaughter,

Good men were left for dead

In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all

Beneath the sky of hate,

Beyond the sea of pain,

In heaven I will wait,

Until we meet again

I gave my life to save her

The ocean turned to red

In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all

Cut down like lambs at slaughter,

Good men were left for dead

In the fall, in the fall, when the tide took them all
