the wave

Lyrics

we were talking on a boardwalk, we were lit up when the lights came down, so we drifted toward the music, and you kissed me as the sound, of my favorite band was playing, but i couldn't hear them 'cause my heart, was beating loud and out of rhythm, as you drowned out all the dark, i was a boat trapped in a bottle, dying for water, you were the ocean, i was a compass that couldn't find heaven, i didn't know how bad i was broken, i was castaway with no land, i drew a broken heart in the sand, and you were the wave, the wave, the wave, that washed it all, that washed it all away, we talked for a couple of hours, we got salt all over our jeans, and we laughed about forever, what the hell did that really mean, and all of a sudden thanks to you, my favorite color is blue, i never saw you coming, sweet salvation in and i never knew, i was a boat trapped in a bottle, dying for water, you were the ocean, i was a compass that couldn't find heaven, i didn't know how bad i was broken, i was castaway with no land, i drew a broken heart in the sand, and you were the wave, the wave, the wave, that washed it all, that washed it all away, i was a town closed for winter, i was a ferris wheel with the light burnt out, 'til you came along, when you came along, i was a boat trapped in a bottle, dying for water, you were the ocean, i was a compass that couldn't find heaven, i didn't know how bad i was broken, i was castaway with no land, i drew a broken heart in the sand, and you were the wave, the wave, the wave, that washed it all, that washed it all away, yeah, you washed it all away, you were the wave, the wave, the wave, yeah, that washed it all away
