As we come to the time
When evening draws nigh
And clouds gather near
For we must say goodbye
As we hold hands together
And whisper farewell
May this moment be
The tide that binds.
The tide that binds
What does it mean
Are we that much closer
To what we were before
But with this moment
This precious moment
So may it be
The tide that binds.
People come
And people go
But their deeds live on
Their names not forgotten
For in our hearts
They forever remain
For yes, it is true
The tide does bind.
