Waves Songtext
von Metteson

We ran barefoot through the fields
Always straying from the pack
Dipped our toes in lacquered shoes
Now there′s no way of going back

To the open arms of summer
Salty pearls we let them dry
Slowly poisoned by the handshakes
As they firm as time goes by

You seem to ride the waves that pull me under
Whatever brings me down lifts you higher
You seem to ride the waves that pull me under
Whatever brings me down lifts you higher, higher

I'm finding that it′s hard to pass the time
Where am I to head if I won't climb
Ambition's golden ladder
And even when I set myself a goal
Another generation′s in control
Ambition doesn′t matter


You seem to ride the waves that pull me under
Whatever brings me down lifts you higher
You seem to ride the waves that pull me under
Whatever brings me down lifts you higher, higher

We ran barefoot through the fields
Always straying from the pack
Dipped our toes in lacquered shoes
Now there's no way of going back

Spilling out between our fingers
If you squeeze me I′ll hold still
Like you're pulling up the hand break
I′m connected to your will

You seem to ride the waves that pull me under
Whatever brings me down lifts you higher
You seem to ride the waves that pull me under
Whatever brings me down lifts you higher higher

I'm finding that it′s hard to pass the time
Where am I to head if I won't climb
Ambition's golden ladder
And even when I set myself a goal
Another generation′s in control
Ambition doesn′t matter
