Frank Turner - A Wave Across a Bay lyrics
[Frank Turner - A Wave Across a Bay lyrics]
I spoke with Scott last night
I was tired, but I wasn't sleeping
And despite what you think, I wasn't drinking
I was just finally ready to listen
And he was there alright
And though he'd probably kill me
Just for saying this
Given how the both of us are atheists
But there it is
There must have been a moment just
Before you hit the water
When you were filled with a
Sense of peace and understanding
With the wind in your hair and
The light in your eyes
As you realised you were finally еscaping
But somehow, in that moment
You miraculously miss it
Like a wavе across a bay never breaking
And that's how I like to think of you
Ever falling, never landing
Rolling slowly out to sea and always smiling
You were always smiling
God damn, I miss you, man
It was just weeks before you
Went that we were speaking
I just wish that you had
Told me you were leaving
Before you walked your final mile
I'm not pissed off at you, man
But, you had something in your
Soul that we could recognize
You were one of us
But you worked out how you could survive
At least for a while
There must have been a moment just
Before you hit the water
When you were filled with a
Sense of peace and understanding
With the wind in your hair and
The light in your eyes
As you realised you were finally escaping
But somehow, in that moment
You miraculously miss it
Like a wave across a bay never breaking
And that's how I like to think of you
Ever falling, never landing
Rolling slowly out to sea and always smiling
You were always smiling
You were a wave across a bay never breaking
You were a wave across a bay
Never breaking out to the sea
Ever falling, never landing
You were a wave across a bay never breaking
You were a wave across a bay
Never breaking out to the sea
Ever falling, never landing
You were a wave across a bay never breaking
You were a wave across a bay
Never breaking out to the sea
And you were always smiling
I was tired, but I wasn't sleeping
And despite what you think, I wasn't drinking
I was just finally ready to listen
And he was there alright
And though he'd probably kill me
Just for saying this
Given how the both of us are atheists
But there it is
There must have been a moment just
Before you hit the water
When you were filled with a
Sense of peace and understanding
With the wind in your hair and
The light in your eyes
As you realised you were finally еscaping
But somehow, in that moment
You miraculously miss it
Like a wavе across a bay never breaking
And that's how I like to think of you
Ever falling, never landing
Rolling slowly out to sea and always smiling
You were always smiling
God damn, I miss you, man
It was just weeks before you
Went that we were speaking
I just wish that you had
Told me you were leaving
Before you walked your final mile
I'm not pissed off at you, man
But, you had something in your

But you worked out how you could survive

Like a wave across a bay never breaking
And that's how I like to think of you
Ever falling, never landing
Rolling slowly out to sea and always smiling
You were always smiling
You were a wave across a bay never breaking
You were a wave across a bay
Never breaking out to the sea
Ever falling, never landing
You were a wave across a bay never breaking
You were a wave across a bay
Never breaking out to the sea
Ever falling, never landing
You were a wave across a bay never breaking
You were a wave across a bay
Never breaking out to the sea
And you were always smiling
