Watch the waves so far away   They're washing 'cross the paths that I have made   Leaving all my sins, I turn away   Like soaring birds I watch my sorrows play   Don't you know, I've left and gone away   You're knocking on the door I closed today   And everything looks brighter   Waves at play just sooth my pain away   Felt so good to see the sun   I choose my time before I choose the wine   Floating cross the waves the silence runs   My thoughts can cure but now my sorrow's done   Don't you know, I've left and gone away   You're knocking on the door I closed today   And everything looks brighter   The waves at play, they sooth my pain away
