    Infobox Song See Wikipedia WikiProject Songs Name And the Tide Rushes In Cover Artist The Moody Blues Album A Question of Balance Released 7 August 1970 Recorded 22 January 1970 Length 2 57 Label Threshold Records Writer Ray Thomas Producer Tony Clarke producer Tony Clarke Last single This single Next single And the Tide Rushes In is song from The Moody Blues 1970 album A Question of Balance . Written by band member Ray Thomas , And the Tide Rushes In connotes a sense of strife in a relationship with the narrator s lover symbolized as the tide, rushing in and washing the narrator s efforts away. The first verse conveys the discord I build them up You knock them down. In the second verse, the narrator listens to his lover, yet acknowledges the complaints are the same ones always being offered I hear nothing new. The song s conclusion does not suggest a happy ending. The blackbird mentioned will continue to watch the events of the lovers lives, but there s nothing to suggest the lovers will do anything different in their lives than what they ve done up to this point. Acorns will grow into trees, but that s the only change the ending suggests. This song is one of the most American country of the Moody Blues compositions. The ethic, the nature imagery, the background guitar, the repetition all are vivid and vibrant echoes of the mountain roots of much US music. Ray Thomas reportedly wrote the song after a row with his wife.
