|
I know you're in a hurry, and I know it's getting late |
|
I know you've got your reasons for wanting out of this place |
|
The bitter wind bites down hard in the evening, |
|
if you'd known you would have changed your plans, |
|
Half our lives spent crawling and kneeling, |
|
but now we're gonna learn to stand |
|
In the cold waves, we could be drowning, in the cold waves |
|
Before there was an ocean, before it ever even needed a name |
|
I set out to find a reason, to meet you here in this place |
|
The summer wind burns my eyes in the morning, |
|
so I'm gonna draw a line in the sand, |
|
All of my life spent stumbling and falling, |
|
but now I'm gonna learn to stand, |
|
In the cold waves, we won't be drowning, in the cold waves |
|
Someone's always drifting away, someone's always drifting away, |
|
So I say no more drifting, no more drifting, no more drifting away. |
