Ebb tides come and ebb tides go
—And yet this really isn’t so.
Ebb tides go and ebb tides fade;
It’s just the way ebb tides are made.
Yes, ebb tides fade and ebb tides go
But ebb tides never ever flow.
An ebb that goes is fit to be tide;
An ebb that flows is fit to be tied.
Flood tides come and flood tides go
—Oh, me! Oh, my! That’s just not so;
Flood tides flow and flood tides come;
That’s how they’re made—yes, all, not some.
Yes, flood tides come and flood tides flow
But flood tides never ever go.
A flood that flows is fit to be tide;
A flood that goes is fit to be tied.
Yes, ebb tides fade and flood tides flow
—I’ve got it right now; this I know.
Yes, flood tides come and ebb tides go.
I don’t know why but this is so.
