Lyrics
0:17Every breaking wave on the shore
0:22Tells the next one
0:24"there'll be one more"
0:26Every gambler knows that to lose
0:31Is what you're really there for
0:34Summer I was fearless
0:39Now I speak into an answerphone
0:42Like every fallen leaf on the breeze
0:48Winter wouldn't leave it alone alone
0:53If you go
0:57If you go your way
0:59And I go mine
1:01Are we so
1:05Are we so helpless against the tide
1:10Baby every dog on the street
1:14Knows that we're in love with defeat
1:18Are we ready to be swept off our feet
1:23And stop chasing every breaking wave
1:35Every sailor knows that the sea
1:40Is a friend made enemy
1:43Every shipwrecked soul knows
1:46What it is
1:48To live without intimacy
1:51I thought I heard the captain's voice
1:56But it's hard to listen
1:58While you preach
2:00Like every broken wave on the shore
2:05This is as far as I could reach
2:10If you go
2:14If you go your way
2:16And I go mine
2:18Are we so
2:23Are we so helpless against the tide
2:27Baby every dog on the street
2:31Knows that we're in love with defeat
2:35Are we ready to be swept off our feet
2:40And stop chasing every breaking wave
2:53The sea knows where all the rocks
2:55Are drowning is an ocean
2:57You know where my heart is
2:59The same place that yours has been
3:01We know that we fear the wind
3:03And it's all we have before we begin
3:07Before we begin
3:17If you go
3:21If you go your way
3:23And I go mine
3:25Are we so
3:29Are we so helpless against the tide
3:34Baby every dog on the street
3:38Knows that we're in love with defeat
3:42Are we ready to be swept off our feet
3:47And stop chasing every breaking wave
Every breaking wave on the shore Tells the next one "there'll be one more" Every gambler knows that to lose Is what you're really there for Summer I was fearless Now I speak into an answerphone Like every fallen leaf on the breeze Winter wouldn't leave it alone alone If you go If you go your way And I go mine Are we so Are we so helpless against the tide Baby every dog on the street Knows that we're in love with defeat Are we ready to be swept off our feet And stop chasing every breaking wave Every sailor knows that the sea Is a friend made enemy Every shipwrecked soul knows What it is To live without intimacy I thought I heard the captain's voice But it's hard to listen While you preach Like every broken wave on the shore This is as far as I could reach If you go If you go your way And I go mine Are we so Are we so helpless against the tide Baby every dog on the street Knows that we're in love with defeat Are we ready to be swept off our feet And stop chasing every breaking wave The sea knows where all the rocks Are drowning is an ocean You know where my heart is The same place that yours has been We know that we fear the wind And it's all we have before we begin Before we begin If you go If you go your way And I go mine Are we so Are we so helpless against the tide Baby every dog on the street Knows that we're in love with defeat Are we ready to be swept off our feet And stop chasing every breaking wave
