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
Somewhere else, fearlessness
Now I’m speaking to an answer phone
Every silent leaf
On the breeze
Winter wouldn’t leave it alone
Ay hey now
Ay hey now
I don’t know if I’m that strong
I don’t know if I’m that strong
Don’t know if I’m that strong
To be somebody
To need someone
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 master’s voice
It’s hard to listen while you preach
Like every broken wave
On the shore
This world’s as far as I can reach
Ay hey now
Ay hey now
I don’t know if I’m that strong
I don’t know if I’m that strong
Don’t know if I’m that strong
Got to be somebody
To need someone
The waves know
We’re on the rocks
Drowning is no sin
And you know
My heart is
The same place yours has been
We know
The fear of winning
Should we end before we begin
The waves know
We’re on the rocks
Drowning is no sin
You know
My heart is
The same place yours has been
We know
The fear of winning
Should we end before we begin
Con il laccio che doveva unire i loro cuori hanno strangolato la loro pace.
(G. C. Lichtenberg)
