Riptide Songtext
von Ruth Etting

Riptide, caught in a riptide
Torn between two loves, the old and the new
Riptide, lost in a riptide
Where will it take me, what shall I do?

My heart is tossed on a sea of emotion
One love offers romance, the other, devotion
A new love is calling, the old love is pleading
I′m caught in a riptide, what shall I do?


Life was as calm as a summer sea
When silver moonlight beams
And then a new love beckoned me
Wrecking my ship of dreams

Riptide, caught in a riptide
Torn between two loves, the old and the new
Riptide, lost in a riptide
Where will it take me, what shall I do?

My heart is tossed on a sea of emotion
One love offers romance, the other, devotion
A new love is calling, the old love is pleading
I'm caught in a riptide, what shall I do?
