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 love There is a light in the dark, and I feel it's warm in my hands and my heart But why can't I hold on? Cos 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, and the 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, 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, a necklace 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, and the 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, cos it comes and goes in waves And carries us away, and 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? And take me back to the feeling when everything was left to find Cos it comes and goes in waves, it always does, it always does And the freedom of falling, and the 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, cos it comes and goes in waves And carries us away
