Lyrics

The water's getting closer
But the tide's not coming in
We're still sitting 'round the campfire
Telling stories with our friends
We'll see you this time next year
When the summer comes again
'Cause the water's getting closer
But the tide's not coming in

Long as I remember
It's an annual to-do
A getaway from the everyday
A reset and retool
A family reunion
Without blood between the two
So many friends are popping in
The old ones and the new

As we've gotten older
Much will never be the same
But as the trip reminds us
Some things will never change
Thinking 'bout the beach now within reach
And all the songs we sang
Toes in the sand, cold beer in hand
And a woman to blame

The water's getting closer
But the tide's not coming in
We're still sitting 'round the campfire
Telling stories with our friends
We'll see you this time next year
When the summer comes again
'Cause the water's getting closer
But the tide's not coming in

Cart up the road, fireworks explode
A "fore" heard from the course
Moving 'cross the street
And later on down by the shore
Having fun under the sun
Leaving worries at the door
The living's free just feel the breeze
And come right back for more

The water's getting closer
But the tide's not coming in
We're still sitting 'round the campfire
Telling stories with our friends
We'll see you this time next year
When the summer comes again
'Cause the water's getting closer
But the tide's not coming in

Life can be like how you dream
Just take a break from everything
And find a song to sing
All together now
All together now

The water's getting closer
But the tide's not coming in
We're still sitting 'round the campfire
Telling stories with our friends
We'll see you this time next year
When the summer comes again
'Cause the water's getting closer
But the tide's not coming in

The water's getting closer
But the tide's not coming in
We're still sitting 'round the campfire
Telling stories with our friends
We'll see you this time next year
When the summer comes again
'Cause the water's getting closer
But the tide's not coming in
The water's getting closer
But the tide's not coming in
