Cold Waves - Neal Casal

I know you’re in a hurry, and I know it’s getting late

I know you’ve got your reasons for wanting out of this place

The bitter wind bites down hard in the evening

If you’d known you would have changed your plans

Half our lives spent crawling and kneeling

But now we’re gonna learn to stand

In the cold waves, we could be drowning, in the cold waves

Before there was an ocean, before it ever even needed a name

I set out to find a reason, to meet you here in this place

The summer wind burns my eyes in the morning

So I’m gonna draw a line in the sand

All of my life spent stumbling and falling

But now I’m gonna learn to stand

In the cold waves, we won’t be drowning, in the cold waves

Someone’s always drifting away, someone’s always drifting away

So I say no more drifting, no more drifting, no more drifting away
