Ride The Waves
from the album "Fun With Sound"

(Michael Roe/Mark Harmon)


I spoke the wayward wind
Has not been your friend for
Days have long departed
You once started as a child from hell
I knew you well
I called you friend
Now where you gone and been?
With your first taste of sin
You fell upon the dark and lonely highway

Goin' my way? C'mon step inside
Be my bride
My sweet and loving cup
Let me pick you up
And drive you down
Where we can

Ride the waves
And when the wind
Makes war instead of love
Grab your board and rise above

I calm the storm and stress
And when your life's a mess
To make the best of it
And live the rest of it
My peace be still
I'm waiting in the wings to bring the chill

And when you shoot the curl
And whirl around and 'round
I will not ever let you drown
Down the whirlwind out
And while you're reaping
What you've sowed
I'll let it blow
Till you can

Ride the waves
And when the wind
Makes war you've got to
Ride the waves to make your way
Above the raging sea
Paddle out and ride with me
And when the sea is till
It comes down to your will
To walk on top of it
Step outside the boat and try
Your gravity deny
Reality won't bend
Unless you've got a friend
Somewhere over the rainbow
Where love lies

Deep inside the lonely sea
The darkened endless night
If love is there you're gonna ride
The waves and when the wind
Makes war, you've got to ride
The waves to make your way
Above the storm and ride

The waves and when the wind
Makes war instead of love
Your board can rise above
Above the stormy sea

Won't you paddle out and ride
Ride the waves with me
And when the wind makes war
War instead of love

You ride the waves to make
Your way above the storm
The storm and raging sea
Paddle out and ride with me
