Vance Joy
Riptide
[Verse 1: Vancouver Sleep Clinic]
I was scared of dentists and the dark
I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations
Oh, all my friends are turning green
You're the magician's assistant in their dream

[Pre-Chorus: Amelia Magdalena]
Ah-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ah-ooh-ooh, and it comes unstuck

[Chorus: Vancouver Sleep Clinic & Amelia Magdalena]
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

[Verse 2: Amelia Magdalena]
There's this movie that I think you'll like
This guy decides to quit his job and heads to New York City
This cowboy's running from himself
And she's been living on the highest shelf

[Pre-Chorus: Amelia Magdalena]
Ah-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ah-ooh-ooh, and it comes unstuck
[Chorus: Vancouver Sleep Clinic & Amelia Magdalena]
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

[Bridge: Both, Vancouver Sleep Clinic]
I just wanna, I just wanna know
If you're gonna, if you're gonna stay
I just gotta, I just gotta know
I can't have it, I can't have it any other way
I swear she's destined for the screen
Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you've ever seen

[Chorus: Vancouver Sleep Clinic & Amelia Magdalena]
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
