There is a swelling storm
And I'm caught up in the middle of it all
And it takes control
Of the person that I thought I was
The boy I used to know
But there is a light
In the dark
And I feel its warmth
In my hands
In my heart
Why can't I hold on
'Cause it comes and goes in waves
It always does
It always does
We watch as our young hearts fade
Into the flood
Into the flood
And the freedom
of falling
The feeling I thought was set in stone
It slips through my fingers
Trying hard to let go
But it comes and goes in waves
'Cause it comes and goes in waves
And carries us away
Through the wind
Down to the place we used to lay when we were kids
Memories of a stolen place
Caught in the silence
An echo lost in space
'Cause it comes and goes in waves
It always does
It always does
We watch as our young hearts fade
Into the flood
Into the flood
And the freedom
of falling
The feeling I thought was set in stone
It slips through my fingers
Trying hard to let go
But it comes and goes in waves
'Cause it comes and goes in waves
And carries us away
I watched my world youth disappear in front of my eyes
Moments of magic and wonder
It seems so hard to find
Is it ever coming back again
Is it ever coming back again
Take me back to the feeling when
Everything was left to find
'Cause it comes and goes in waves
It always does
It always does
And the freedom
of falling
The feeling I thought was set in stone
It slips through my fingers
Trying hard to let go
But it comes and goes in waves
'Cause it comes and goes in waves
And carries us away
