The song is about a relationship that is constantly being threatened to end ("the tide" that could wash them away). The singer feels this threat coming again and wants their partner to stay close and hold steady to prevent their relationship from ending, as they find safety and want to stay with their partner. They don't want external forces, represented by "the tide", to separate them or take them away from each other.

I feel it coming, it's coming again I stay close, hold steady 'Cause I don't wanna it, don't want it to end Those brown eyes, crying in a crowded bar Every time we get this close It's always pulling us apart
Don't let the tide come and wash us away
Don't let the tide come and take me I just want a safe place to hide us away So don't let the tide come and take me Don't let the tide come and wash us away Don't let the tide come and take me Far from with you, where I wanna stay So don't let the tide come and take me
Oh no, get ready
I feel it coming, it's coming again Don't give up, and don't let me 'Cause I'm needing you to understand When I go, all I ever seem to fear Is that you're gonna find someone And slowly watch me disappear
Don't let the tide come and wash us away
Don't let the tide come and take me I just want a safe place to hide us away So don't let the tide come and take me Don't let the tide come and wash us away Don't let the tide come and take me Far from with you, where I wanna stay So don't let the tide come and take me
Oh no, get ready
Yeah, I feel it coming, it's coming again Stay close and hold steady 'Cause I don't want it, don't want it to end No, no, I don't want it, don't want it to end
Don't let the tide come and wash us away
Don't let the tide come and take me I just want a safe place to hide us away So don't let the tide come and take me Don't let the tide come and wash us away Don't let the tide come and take me Far from with you, where I wanna stay So don't let the tide come and take me
