"It’s the perfect setting, a beautiful day
His hand in hers they’re making their way. 
Across Chapel Porth Beach and its Atlantic tide
His hand on her belly, new life inside

The light’s a cathedral, there’s know one around
There’s talk of the future and names to be found
Then she sleeps in his arms to the ocean swell
But you can walk out in heaven and end up in hell

Sometimes we fold, and the answer comes
When all hope’s gone, somehow it arrives
The sea isn’t ours, she’s a thief and a friend
But you can start to live once you’ve seen an end 

So his mind snaps back, like something just died. 
He didn’t see it coming ‘babe wake up, we gotta beat this tide’
They’re trapped in a headland corner, where Mother Nature don’t give a damn
He knows they’re in trouble now, left their phone in the van

It’s all happened so quickly, the moon’s gravity
And soon he’s holding her up by her Mothercare dungarees
He’s fought every wave done all that he can
And the water’s so high now he can barely stand

Her face in his hands they say their goodbyes
There are no words now just the love across their eyes
And that stone cold fear at the end of your world
But for a second she wonders ‘was it a boy or a girl?’

Sometimes we fold, and the answer comes.   
When all hope’s gone, somehow it arrives
The sea’s isn’t ours, she’s a thief and a friends
But you can start to live once you’ve seen an end

Some say there’s angels in heaven, but we need e’m down here
Some days they ride surf boards, then disappear 
Not before they make phone calls when they’ve seen us wave
Then set out to save us, selfless and brave

It’s the perfect setting, a beautiful day
His hand on hers with vows to say
Chapel Porth Beach and the Atlantic sea
Could have taken two lives .. but a lifeboat gave back three"
