## Lyrics
[verse]
Left my home behind the hills so green
Came out here chasin' some bigger dream
Now I'm restin' on this old wood rail
Watchin' every ship pass under sail

[chorus]
And I'm just sittin' here, lettin' the hours roll
Watchin' the water, easy on my soul
Nothin' left to chase, nowhere left to run
Just me and the tide till the day is done

[verse]
Tried my luck in the city, tried it hard
Came up empty-handed, worn and scarred
So I found this quiet place to lay my head
Where the wind talks softer than the words I've said

[chorus]
And I'm just sittin' here, lettin' the hours roll
Watchin' the water, easy on my soul
Nothin' left to chase, nowhere left to run
Just me and the tide till the day is done

[bridge]
Same old waves keep rollin' in
Same old sun goes down again
Guess I'll stay right where I am
Watchin' time slip through my hands

[chorus]
And I'm just sittin' here, lettin' the hours roll
Watchin' the water, easy on my soul
Nothin' left to chase, nowhere left to run
Just me and the tide till the day is done
