THE TIDE IS HIGH
The tide is high but I'm holding on I'm gonna be your number one
Every girl wants you to be her man but I'll wait my dear 'till it's my turn I'm not the kinda girl who gives up just like that no no oh
The tide is high but I'm holding on I'm gonna be your number one number one number one
It's not the things you do that tease and hurt me bad but it's the way you do the things you do to me I'm not the kinda girl no no no you're not no you're not like that no no no no
The tide is high but I'm holding on I'm gonna be your number one number one number one
The tide is high but I'm holding on tide is high but I'm holding on
Ah ha ahh ya ya ya ah ha ooh ooh hoo hoo yoo hoo tide is high tide is high holding on holding on |
