“And When I Die”

~ Blood, Sweat & Tears

“The tide rises, the tide falls,/ The twilight darkens, the curlew calls;/ Along the sea-sands damp and brown/ The traveller hastens toward the town,/ And the tide rises, the tide falls./ Darkness settles on roofs and walls,/ But the sea, the sea in the darkness calls;/ The little waves, with their soft, white hands,/ Efface the footprints in the sands,/ And the tides rises, the tide falls./ The morning breaks; the steeds in their stalls/ Stamp and neigh, as the hostler calls;/ The day returns, but nevermore/ Returns the traveller to the shore,/ And the tide rises, the tide falls.”

                       Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

                      “The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls”
