Waltz For Richard lyrics

On our last trip to the coast We watched the boats sail the sea "How effortlessly they float" You turned and said to me And sedately I sat there In my quiet mist of rage How I wanted to tell you But I was hushed by my shame So when the waves come rolling in Then I won't turn the tide And in the line of fire You'll set me aside So go on Richard let go And I can still remember The laughter in a stranger's face And the way you would tell me To slow down my pace See no living is that easy No living is that fair Of course I was going to lose you Were you ever even there? So when the waves come rolling in Then I won't turn the tide And in the line of fire You'll set me aside So go on Richard let go
