The Wood Brothers - The Waves Lyrics

The Wood Brothers Lyrics

"The Waves"

The waves keep coming, they never stop
The waves keep breaking, they break against the rocks
I am a rock, you break against me
I stand my ground, face-to-face with the sea
And little by little, I turn to sand
I'm through breaking you, and gently, you land

When will you land on my shore?
The angry water's for me no more
Rest your weary soul
You don't have to fight anymore

Waves keep coming
Waves keep coming
Waves keep coming

The waves keep coming, they never stop
The waves keep breaking, they break against the rocks
I am a rock, you break against me
I stand my ground, face-to-face with the sea
And little by little, I turn to sand
I'm through breaking you, and gently, you land

We hide our wounds within
It still hurts when the salt hits my skin
I won't pull away
I'd rather be lost in the waves

The waves keep coming, they never stop
The waves keep breaking, they break against the rocks
I am a rock, you break against me
I stand my ground, face-to-face with the sea
And little by little, I turn to sand
I'm through breaking you, and gently, you land

Waves keep coming
Waves keep coming
