Colin Hilton - Low Tide Regrets Lyrics

Low Tide Regrets
As a child I loved you like a child
Everything about you was a craft
Tried to win your favour with sharp silliness
But girls are always older than their laughs

Now I'm older love's just like a Lavermat
I try and lose the spin to keep things dry
Mixing fast with colour a social conscious thing
What clown has washed the duster with the whites?

Would you sink to be my baby?
Could you float to be my love?
Was our chemistry a punctured rubber ring?
No low tide regrets
But there's a child collecting sea shells

So many years have passed I'm growing young
I've lost the dream of ageing in your arms
Clock has turned its back on all our poster days of charm
But chimes won't take your beauty from my heart

Would you sink to be my baby?
Could you float to be my love?
Was our chemistry a punctured rubber ring?
No low tide regrets
But there's a child collecting sea shells

Would you sink to be my baby?
Could you float to be my love?
Was our chemistry a punctured rubber ring?
No low tide regrets
I'm just a child listening to sea shells
