Like  a dream on the ocean
Always  drifting away
And  I can't catch up
 She just  skips away - on the  tide
Sometimes  a great notion
Can  lead you astray
So  weak to devotion
 So strong  to desire
Baby,  baby, baby won't you let me  ride
Take  me off on your sail boat ride
Come  on now angels, are on your side
 But she slips  away - oh, and never stays
 Like mercury gliding
 A silver teardrop that falls
 And I CAN'T HOLD ON
 Through my fingers she's gone
 At the foot of the mountain
 Such a long way to climb
 How will I ever get up there -
 Though I know I must try
 Baby, baby, baby won't you let me ride
 Take me off on your sail boat ride
 Come on now angels, are on your side
 But she slips away - oh, and never stays
 Like a dream on the ocean
 Always drifting away
 And I can't catch up
 She just skips  away - on the  tide
 She just slips  away - on the  tide
 Skips away  - as she glides
 End: Repeat Intro Riff

Skips awa[Am7]y - as she g[D7]lides[Em]     [Am7]
