Riptide lyrics - Illy (feat. Thelma Plum)

[Thelma Plum:]
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

[Illy:]
Yeah, yeah. And I remember, I remember, yeah yeah
And I remember all the times I'd ignore my cues
Either let it pass by or talk to soon
That's the thing about dreams they don't all come true
But I won't let a little rain spoil my view
I guess it's growing up, I caught those blues
Wish the floor would open up and I'd fall right through
Switch skies, riptides any shore would do
Somewhere over the Atlantic I thought of you
And I swear, name a time and place and I'm there
Let the world try and find us
Take her away to the dark side and she still shine in the room of young Michelle Pfeiffer's
My bad, can't be mad where it's at is so far from where it began, yeah
The main event is still a humble fan
Life long memory, one night stand, but

[Thelma Plum:]
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

[Illy:]
Yeah yeah, and I mean even I've told you life's a song
Either, write your own or recite it wrong
And it ain't always clear what side their on
You gotta play the right angle, 9 o'clock so
Check your watch, go time we're off
I've got a lump in my throat and right now lost
I've been between what comes next and remember them days
Every second spent, every cent made
Between the new crew and the friends that I met in tenth grade
Stayed together didn't fade, I'm a lucky man
Cause since I didn't have a buck in hand
I've been blessed, and in wherever the sum I land
And this a trip, better than the one I planned
Some by fate and some by chance, and it's just my luck, I spun my jams
In to a life long memory, one night stand, but

[Thelma Plum:]
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

Lady [x4]
I love you [x4]

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
