    Riptide Lyrics – Vance Joy 

    [Verse 1]
    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]
    Oh, oh-o-oh, and they come unstuck

    [Chorus]
    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]
    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]
    Oh, oh-o-oh, and they come unstuck

    [Chorus]
    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]
    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, oh

    [Chorus]
    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
    Oh 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

    Oh 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, yeah
    I got a lump in my throat ’cause
    You’re gonna sing the words wrong
