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
In the cold waves
In the cold waves
We could be drowning
In the cold waves
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
In the cold waves
In the cold waves
We could be drowning
In the cold waves
We could 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

In the cold waves
In the cold waves
In the cold waves
We could be drowning
In the cold waves
In the cold waves
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
