Turn Of The Tide

Carly Simon

Compositor: Carly Simon / Jacob Brackman

How can we know
The fate of the earth
Must everything go
From bad to worse

How can we be
Just along
For the ride
We'd rather believe
That we decide

That we can stand here
And say loud and clear
Here comes the turn
Of the tide

Here comes the turn
Here comes the turn
Here comes the turn
Of the tide

We cannot go on
Sounding alarms
And rattling swords
And building bombs
And fouling the air
And the streams
Underground
We've got to begin
To turn it around

It's our right
To be heard
Our right to decide
Here comes the turn
Of the tide

Here comes the turn
Here comes the turn
Here comes the turn
Of the tide

As low as we've gone
Now the ocean is calm
Now here comes the turn
Of the tide

It's time to be heard
It's time to decide
Here comes the turn
Of the tide

Here comes the turn
Here comes the turn
Here comes the turn
Of the tide
