The Wave

(By Donny Brewer, Eric Erdman)

A tumble of sea foam green
Crashes at my feet
Headlong to meet its end

It Caught my eye just between
advance and retreat
before the next one came rolling in

I wanna know How far it’s come
I wanna know The time it spent
I wanna know Because I wanna go
Where that wave has been

Was it just one more born
From the pull of the tide
Or the wake of some mighty ship

Or maybe on a foreign shore
There was a wide eyed child
With a wish and a stone to skip

I wanna know How far it’s come
I wanna know The time it spent
I wanna know Because I wanna go
Where that wave has been

I would ride every mile
And see places I’ve never seen
And when I got back home I’d skip a stone
Hoping the wave it starts might reach
Another wide eyed soul with that dream ...

I wanna know How far it’s come
I wanna know The time it spent
I wanna know Because I wanna go
Where that wave has been
