Tidal Waves

Keep your head above the water

Or you're surely gonna drown

I keep my fixated on what's yonder

Diffuses all the pain around

But wait, but wait, I don't think I'm ready

But wait, but wait, oh lord hold me steady

But wait, but wait, I don't

But I still feel you now

And it gets me through somehow

All my days crash then calm

Like tidal waves make me run

Like the ocean had this planned all along

So when I am full of doubt

Oh I still feel you now

Now what is lost can't be unbroken

And this hole will never fill

My head it floods with thoughts and words left unspoken

My heart it beats but it is still

But wait, but wait, I don't think I'm ready

But wait, but wait, oh lord hold me steady

But wait, but wait, I don't

But I still feel you now

And it gets me through somehow

All my days crash then calm

Like tidal waves make me run

Like the ocean had this planned all along

So when I am full of doubt

Oh I still feel you now

Oh no, oh no, I feel it coming under me

Be still, be still oh somber heart and help me breathe

Oh no, oh no a bigger plan I've yet to see

Be still, be still, be

But I still feel you now

So daddy, show me how

To be brave like my mother

To be strong like my brother

To be wise enough when you are not around

Oh I still feel you now

And it gets me through somehow

All my days crash then calm

Like tidal waves make me run

Like the ocean had this planned all along

So when I am full of doubt

I still feel you now
