What you, what you see is
Something you can't distinguish
Something you know that you love.
What you, what you need is
Something she'll never be
I think it's time to let you go

Go and ask the Captain
Do it now
Do it before we drown

It's too late, it's too late
I think the tide has come to
Wash you out,
Wash you away from here

It's too late, it's too late
I think the tide has come to
Wash you out,
Wash you away from here

Here comes the storm,
It's moving in and swallowing (swallowing)
Like the bottom half of an hour glass
And we're running out of space

So go and ask the Captain
Do it now.
Do it before we drown

It's too late, it's too late
I think the tide has come to
Wash you out,
Wash you away from here

It's too late, it's too late
I think the tide has come to
Wash you out,
Wash you away from here

Empty ocean is all we see,
The north star is all we need
This time is probably right for everyone to say their goodbyes
"May day! May day!" she said to me,
However it's too late
Captain, oh Captain, we've lost our direction

It's too late
It's too late
It's too late

It's too late, it's too late
I think the tide has come to wash you out,
Wash you away from here

It's too late, it's too late
I think the tide has come to wash you out,
Wash you away from here
