LIFE'S LIKE AN OCEAN, WE'RE ALL JUST FLOATING
LIKE WAVES HEADING TO SOME FAR OFF LAND
WE ALL WANT TO RIDE HIGH, CLOSER TO A BLUE SKY
BUT SOME CRASH BEFORE THEY GET THE CHANCE
SO I'M GONNA ROLL, WHILE I STILL CAN
SO I CAN SAY TO MYSELF...WHEN I REACH THE SAND
CHORUS 1:
I DID EVERYTHING I WANTED TO
CHASED EVERY DREAM AND MADE IT COME TRUE
TREATED EVERY BREATH THAT I WAS GIVEN
LIKE A PRECIOUS GIFT SENT FROM HEAVEN
AND WHEN THE WATER'S ALL BEHIND ME
I WANNA KNOW WITH EVERYTHING INSIDE ME
I COULDN'T HAVE DONE ANY MORE
I WANNA RAISE MY HANDS UP HIGH
WHEN MY WAVE HITS THE SHORE
I FELT THE RAIN POUR, BEEN THROUGH SOME MEAN STORMS
AND MORE THAN ONCE THEY ALMOST TOOK ME DOWN
BUT WHILE I WAS FALLING GOD MUST HAVE HEARD ME CALLING
CAUSE HE SAW FIT, KEEPING ME AROUND
SO I'M GONNA ROLL, WHILE I STILL CAN
SO I CAN SAY TO MYSELF...WHEN I REACH THE SAND
CHORUS 2:
I DID EVERYTHING I WANTED TO
CHASED EVERY DREAM AND MADE IT COME TRUE
TREATED EVERY BREATH THAT I WAS GIVEN
LIKE A PRECIOUS GIFT SENT FROM HEAVEN
AND WHEN THE WATER'S ALL BEHIND ME
I WANNA KNOW WITH EVERYTHING INSIDE OF ME
I COULDN'T HAVE DONE ANY MORE
I WANNA DANCE UPON THE TIDE
WHEN MY WAVE HITS THE SHORE
BEFORE MY DAYS ARE DONE, BEFORE MY RACE IS RUN
BEFORE MY WAVE HITS THE SHORE
GONNA DO EVERYTHING I WANTED TO
CHASE EVERY DREAM AND MAKE IT COME TRUE
TREAT EVERY BREATH THAT I'VE BEEN GIVEN
LIKE A PRECIOUS GIFT SENT FROM HEAVEN
AND WHEN THE WATER'S ALL BEHIND ME
I WANNA KNOW WITH EVERYTHING INSIDE ME
I COULDN'T HAVE DONE ANYMORE
I'M GONNA RAISE ME HANDS UP HIGH
I'M GONNA DANCE UPON THE TIDE
WHEN MY WAVE HITS THE SHORE
