These Waves Lyrics

When I was born, I suppose that I was sober
Maybe so, it just gets harder when you're older
To the coffin from the nipple
From the cradle to the grave
Once a pond discovers ripples
Could it ever forget these waves?

[Chorus]
These waves
Between pleasure and pain
These waves
Come and rock me once again
These waves
Will I ever stop riding these waves?

Like I always do, I found the Dew Drop Inn
What an excellent place to once again begin
But the kindnesses of strangers
Make a haven for fools
You get tired of the dangers
But it's hard to beat the rules of
These waves

[Chorus]

So I grow old, is it true that I'll grow wiser?
I don't know, seems that fortune is a miser
But there's one thing that's for certain,
It's that life is fair, you will have your days of triumph
You will always get your share of

[Chorus]

These waves have got me
Caught between the joy and the bottom below
These waves have brought me
Down to the point
Where there's nothing that I'm certain I know

So rides the world, between freedom and fear
We long for love, though it's perfectly clear
That it takes a lot of courage
To keep an open heart
Though your love may seem well nourished
It will always be a part
Of these waves

[Chorus]
