The Waves

In my soft bed
Through my dreams
Next to her
I hear the waves

Emeralds and pearls
Rubies and gold
I brought home less
Than I left under the waves

Five times
In a row
I left my home
To stand on a sinking boat

And I know
When the waves
Get a hold, of your heart
They don't let go
They don't let go

She sleeps so sweetly
I wear my soft shoes
So she'll only
Hear the waves

Five times
In a row
I left my home
To stand on a sinking boat

And I know
When the waves
Get a hold, of your heart
They don't let go
They don't let go
