Every breaking wave on the shoreTells the next one there'll be one moreAnd every gambler knows that to loseIs what you're really there forSummer I was fearlessnessNow I speak into an answer phoneLike every falling leaf on the breezeWinter wouldn't leave it aloneIf you goIf you go your way and I go mineAre we soArе we so helpless against thе tide?Baby, every dog on the streetKnows that we're in love with defeatAre we ready to be swept off our feetAnd stop chasingEvery breaking wave?And every sailor knows that the seaIs a friend made enemyAnd every shipwrecked soul knows what it isTo live without intimacyI thought I heard the captain's voiceBut it's hard to listen while you preachLike every broken wave on the shoreThis is as far as I could reachIf you goIf you go your way and I go mineAre we soAre we so helpless against the tide?Baby, every dog on the streetKnows that we're in love with defeatAre we ready to be swept off our feetAnd stop chasingEvery breaking wave?The sea knows where are the rocksDrowning is no sinYou know where my heart isSame place yours has beenWe know that we fear to winSo we end before we beginBefore we beginIf you goIf you go your way and I go mineAre we soAre we so helpless against the tide?Baby, every dog on the streetKnows that we're in love with defeatAre we ready to be swept off our feetAnd stop chasingEvery breaking wave?Every breaking waveEvery breaking waveEvery breaking waveEvery breaking wave
