The Rookery - Riptide

She was the ocean and he a boy
A boy who loved the sea but, was terrified to swim
She was a stunning mystery
Who carried the things that no one could understand

Love is not, affectionate feeling
It's a steady wish for the other's ultimate good
Love is not, affectionate feeling
Love is a riptide

She was the ocean and he a boy
A boy who loved the sea but, was terrified to swim
She was a stunning mystery
Who carried the things that no one could understand

Love is not, affectionate feeling
It's a steady wish for the other's ultimate good
Love is not, affectionate feeling
Love is a riptide

Oh I, I was afraid, to fail, like the others
Oh I, I admit, I was afraid to love
Oh I, I was afraid, to fail, like the others
Oh I, I admit, I was afraid to love

Love is not, affectionate feeling
It's a steady wish for the other's ultimate good
Love is not, affectionate feeling

Love is, love is, love is, oh love is
Love is, love is, love is, oh love is
Ooh yes love is, love is, love is, a riptide
