Luke Eelman - Turn the Tide Lyrics

I drove across the bridge and went to see a man
I gave over my life and left with nothing in my hand
I walked out of that old stone building with my head hung low
And walked around that old town with nowhere to go
Maybe the new year will turn the tide
And get the sun back on my side
The heroes in the square, they all laugh at me
Their stone stairs make me wish I had somewhere to be
I go down to the river with my hat in my hand
Looking out at that flowing water kicking at the sand
Maybe the new year will turn the tide
And get the sun back on my side
Someday all these complications are gonna take their toll
And I'm going to have to find my way out of this hole
But right now I've got bigger things filling my mind
And Lord, what I could use is just somewhere to hide
Maybe the new year will turn the tide
And get the sun back on my side
I drift back to the meter and drop in fifty cents
I don't know why, but I guess it beeps thinking where to go next
So I'm gonna hang around this town while the sun is high
And drive back over the bridge, kiss this place goodbye
Maybe the new year will turn the tide
And get the sun back on my side
Maybe the new year will turn the tide
And get the sun back on my side
