"Riptide (Live At Red Rocks Amphitheatre)" lyrics - VANCE JOY
[Intro:]
Um, the next song we're playing is the first song I ever put on the internet and I
Dind't think it was gonna do what it did
And get around to all of these places in the world
So if you guys know the lyrics to this one please sing along with us
I was scared of dentists and the dark
I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations
Oh, all my friends are turning green
You're the magician's assistant in their dreams
[Pre-Chorus:]
Oh, oh-o-oh, and they come unstuck
[Chorus:]
Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song and
I got a lump in my throat 'cause
You're gonna sing the words wrong
Here's this movie that I think you'll like
This guy decides to quit his job and heads to New York City
This cowboy's running from himself
And she's been living on the highest shelf
[Pre-Chorus:]
Oh, oh-o-oh, and they come unstuck
[Chorus:]
Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song and
I got a lump in my throat 'cause
You're gonna sing the words wrong
[Bridge:]
I just wanna, I just wanna know
If you're gonna, if you're gonna stay
I just gotta, I just gotta know
I can't have it, I can't have it any other way
I swear she's destined for the screen
Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you've ever seen, oh
[Chorus:]
(Lady, running down to the riptide)
(Taken away to the dark side)
(I wanna be your left hand man)
(I love you when you're singing that song and)
(I got a lump in my throat 'cause)
(You're gonna sing the words wrong)
Oh lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song and
I got a bump in my throat 'cause
You're gonna sing the words wrong
Oh lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song and
I got a bump in my throat 'cause
You're gonna sing the words wrong
Oh lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song and
I got a bump in my throat 'cause
You're gonna sing the words wrong and
I got a bump in my throat 'cause
You're gonna sing the words wrong
[Outro:]
