Lyrics

Before The Waves Come
(Owen Critchley 2008)

VERSE:
Melanie sips lemonade
As her legs hang in the water
I can see the sky across her face
She believes she's lost without a trace

And she says, I don't know
But I think I was beautiful
And she cries when she says

CHORUS:
Fly, I want to fly
Because I can't run anymore
I'm so tired
Before the waves come
Maybe then I'll see
What I can't believe again

Daniel brings a robe
For the lady by the water
Melanie is tattooed cross his chest
He survives on love and loneliness

She's so beautiful
And he cries when she says

CHORUS:
Fly, I want to fly
Because I can't run anymore
I'm so tired
Before the waves come
Maybe then I'll see
What I can't believe again

BRIDGE:

She says can you see me, Daniel?
Can you reach be baby?
Can you save me darling?

Before the waves come

Fly, I want to fly
Because I can't run anymore
I'm so tired
Before the waves come
Maybe then I'll see
What I can't believe again
