Low Tide of the Night

Low Tide of the Night - Everything But the Girl Lyrics

[Verse 1]
London in the low tide of the night
And not a taxi cab in sight
Anesthetized I start the journey home
I've been living months alone
I've been avoiding things -
The phone rings
I use the answerphone

[Pre-Chorus]
Inside out in the daytime
Outside in in the night time
Inside out in the daytime
Outside in in the night time

[Chorus]
When you're down and troubled
You don't tell your friends
You don't tell your family
I won't let them talk about me
I'm gonna let nobody down

[Verse 2]
Soho in the high tide of the day
And for a while I'm swept away -
I just forget it
I use my walkman when I walk
And I don't talk
But later on the moment's gone and I don't get it

[Pre-Chorus]
Inside out in the daytime
Outside in in the night time
Inside out in the daytime
Wrong at the right time

[Chorus]
When you're down and troubled
You don't tell your friends
You don't tell your family
I won't let them talk about me
I'm gonna let nobody down

[Bridge]
Who shall I be tonight?
Who's gonna see tonight?
Who shall I be tonight?

Inside out in the daytime
Wrong at the right time
I wanna know I'm good for you
Outside in in the night time
Right at the wrong time
I wanna know I'm good to you

[Chorus]
When you're down and troubled
You don't tell your friends
You don't tell your family
I won't let them talk about me
I'm gonna let nobody down

When you're down and troubled
You don't tell your friends
You don't tell your family
I won't let them talk about me
I'm gonna let nobody down

When you're down and troubled
You don't tell your friends
You don't tell your family
I won't let them talk about me
I'm gonna let nobody down


[Outro]
No, no, no, no
I won't let them talk about me
I'm gonna let nobody down down down down
