Thank God It's Not Friday - The Arrival Lyrics

The tide always made sure I was fine
Though at times it made me fear for my life
And I thought I would not survive the night
The tide always made sure I arrived
What a night, what a night, what a night
Where I felt I was going to die
And it felt just like a lifetime
I survived, I survived, I'm alive
And I know I'm a sore eye
But I'd rather be like this than dead
I arrived to some isle in the sunrise
Just as the sun had come out
Right 'fore I was devoured by waves
I survived, I survived, I'm alive
I had not been happier
To feel the sand as my ally
It's been hard, in my mind, I had timed
My death for the end of july
Told the sea to take my breath
I could not see anyone in miles of blue
And I well could guess the depths
That stretched under my canoe
I gave it up
I thought about the view
I could not make out the waves from the azure
I survived, I survived, I'm alive
I had not been happier
To feel the waves under my thighs
I had not been happier
