Waves (acoustic)

There is a swelling storm
And I'm caught up in the middle of it all
And it takes control
Of the person that I thought I was
The boy I used to know
But there, is a light
In the dark, and I feel its warmth
In my hands, and my heart
But why can't I hold on?

'Cause it comes and goes in waves
It always does, it always does
And we watch as our young hearts fade
Into the flood, into the flood

And the freedom of falling
The feeling I thought was set in stone
It slips through my fingers
I'm trying hard to let go
But it comes and goes in waves
Oh it comes and goes in waves
And carries us away

Through the wind
And down to the place
We used to lay when we were kids
Memories of a stolen place
Caught in the silence
An echo lost in space

But it comes and goes in waves
It always does, it always does
And we watch as our young hearts fade
Into the flood, into the flood

And the freedom of falling
The feeling I thought was set in stone
It slips through my fingers
I'm trying hard to let go
But it comes and goes in waves
It comes and goes in waves
And carries us away

I've watched my wild youth
Disappear in front of my eyes
Moments of magic and wonder
It seems so hard to find
Is it ever coming back again?
Is it ever coming back again?
Take me back to the feeling when
Everything was left to find

'Cause it comes and goes in waves
It always does, it always does
And the freedom of falling
A feeling I thought was set in stone
It slips through my fingers
And I'm trying hard to let go

But it comes and goes in waves
'Cause it comes and goes in waves
And carries us away
