Well, we went ahead and did it and recorded our very own version of The Tide is High!
A good friend from Ojai, California has been bugging us to do it for years. It’s our special Skaletine’s Day gift to you… this love song for Valentine’s Day!
We decided to use the original Paragon’s version as the catalyst. It’s just such a great version and it’s no wonder so many have covered it.
Love this song!
As always, thank you very much for your support of The Tide Is High!
With all the good wishes,
Craig and Clara

Every streaming service except Spotify. We’ve stopped releasing there.
It’s a love song for Valentine’s Day!
Lyrics
The tide is high but I’m holding on
I’m gonna be your number one
I’m not the kind of man who gives up just like that
No
It’s not the things you do that really hurts me bad
But it’s the way you do the things you do to me
I’m not the kind of man who gives up just like that
No
The tide is high but I’m holding on
I’m gonna be your number one
Number one
Number one
Every man wants you to be his girl
But I’ll wait my dear till it’s my turn
I’m not the kind of man who gives up just like that
No
Every man wants you to be his girl
But I’ll wait my dear till it’s my turn
I’m not the kind of man who gives up just like that
No
The tide is high but I’m holding on
I’m gonna be your number one
Times are tough but I’m holding on
I’m gonna be your number one
The tide is high but I’m holding on
I’m gonna be your number one
