Just A Wave

Thirst is not the answer oceans come and go I loved her seven seas worth Lord I loved her so But she let me down so easy one slow drop at a time I would've killed myself but it made no sense Commitin' suicide in self defense But I lost everything I brought her When she said babe you're just a wave you're not the water Centuries ago we were living on the gold coast She was still in love with a long gone cold ghost I was only trying to turn back the tide of her tears I felt like an endless ocean rolling through the fog Full emotion drifting like a weather beaten log I even thought that I out-thought her Till she said babe you're just a wave you're not the water [ steel ] I said someday we'll love again then you'll know the score I've taught you everything I know and maybe even more That's true she said more than you ever will I said I've been your raging river precious African queen I've shown you everything that I've ever seen But she knew more than I had taught her When she said babe you're just a wave you're not the water [ ac.guitar ]
