lyrics
The Wave (By H.McMillan)
You say you're going under
And I believe you're coming up instead
You say all you hear is thunder
And I know... calm lies up ahead
And I'll be waiting on the shore
On the rocks for ages
And maybe you'll be washed up
By the wave
And when your storm is over
And vast horizons become clear
To the one who knows her. Really knows her.
Guide her safely over here
And I'll be waiting on the shore
On the rocks for ages
And maybe you'll be washed up
By the wave
And if the wind is with me
I'll place paper flowers in the sea
Expecting nothing in return
How can hope fail when
Everything you have is drifting on the wave
When direction starts to go
And you wander blindly in its will
Feeling overpowered by the flow. Yeah
I'll be waiting still
I'll be waiting on the shore
On the rocks for ages
And maybe you'll be washed up
By the wave
I'll be waiting on the shore
On the rocks for ages
And maybe you'll be washed up
By the wave
You say you're going under
And I believe you're coming up instead
You say all you hear is thunder
And I know... calm lies up ahead
And I'll be waiting on the shore
On the rocks for ages
And maybe you'll be washed up
By the wave
And when your storm is over
And vast horizons become clear
To the one who knows her. Really knows her.
Guide her safely over here
And I'll be waiting on the shore
On the rocks for ages
And maybe you'll be washed up
By the wave
And if the wind is with me
I'll place paper flowers in the sea
Expecting nothing in return
How can hope fail when
Everything you have is drifting on the wave
When direction starts to go
And you wander blindly in its will
Feeling overpowered by the flow. Yeah
I'll be waiting still
I'll be waiting on the shore
On the rocks for ages
And maybe you'll be washed up
By the wave
I'll be waiting on the shore
On the rocks for ages
And maybe you'll be washed up
By the wave
