Meaning Layer
Tides of Time sits in the island layer of the project: place, belonging, summer energy, and the way a local home can hold a much larger cosmology without becoming abstract.
Lyrics
Verse 1 The tide rolls in, then slips away, Just like the moments of our yesterday. On the shores of Goompi, I stand still, Watching time pass, it always will. Every wave brings stories untold, From the ancient past to the future’s hold. Chorus Tides of time, they carry us all, From the rise of life to the endless fall. With every turn, the world spins slow, But the tide knows where we’ll go. Tides of time, we’re swept along, In the rhythm of life’s endless song. Verse 2 The sun sets over Mooloomba’s cliffs, The colors fade, but love still lifts. In every grain of sand, there’s a tale, Of dreams and hearts that once set sail. We’re just a part of the ocean’s rhyme, Lost in the waves, caught in time. Chorus Tides of time, they carry us all, From the rise of life to the endless fall. With every turn, the world spins slow, But the tide knows where we’ll go. Tides of time, we’re swept along, In the rhythm of life’s endless song. Bridge So we breathe, we wait, we grow, In the silence, there’s more to know. The tide, it speaks in whispers low, Of where we’ve been and where we’ll go. Chorus Tides of time, they carry us all, From the rise of life to the endless fall. With every turn, the world spins slow, But the tide knows where we’ll go. Tides of time, we’re swept along, In the rhythm of life’s endless song. Outro The tide rolls out, the stars appear, In the waves, I lose my fear. Tides of time, they pull us near, To the truth, ever clear. ---
