Lyrics
To Ride The Waves
I always tried to be so good
I applied myself body and soul
I did what I was told I should
Everything was under control
Now, it's a different world
And I'm a different girl
I do not know this place,
I don't recognize this face
Time with it's twists and it's turns
As it passes, it stings and it burns
A girl either sinks or she learns
To ride the waves
Yea, it's a different world
A world without a soul
And I'm different girl
Everything is out of control
I don't try anymore to be good
I don't know if I'm lost,
Or if I've understood
And I feel sorry for that naïve soul
Who believed everything was under control
Time with it's twists and it's turns
As it passes, it stings and it burns
A girl either sinks or she learns
To ride the waves
To ride the waves
Time with it's twists and it's turns
As it passes, it stings and it burns
A girl either sinks or she learns
To ride the waves...
