lyrics

All eyes on the horizon, I think I see a big thing coming.
I sent my aspirations scrambling out there over the rocks.
Look out to the skyline, I think I see that big wave forming.
I turned my back on the water, when I turned my back on you.

When I saw the tide was set against you,
And I feared the rocks would rise to greet you,
I did what any good coward would do, yeah I swam away.

Now there's a big wave coming
And I think it's getting ready to crash down over me.
There's a big wave coming,
And I think it's getting ready to...

I could wander for miles on that exposed sand.
I could wander forever in that moonscape land.
I could sink forever in that widening expanse.

Oh there's a big wave coming
And I think it's getting ready to crash down over me.
Oh there's a big wave coming,
And I think it's getting ready to...

I didn't know my strength was bound to falter,
But surely as I am my mother's daughter,
Surely as the winner's luck will alter...

When that big wave crashes I'm gonna be sinking down.
Oh there's a big wave coming, and I think it's getting ready to...

He offered me all that I wanted,
So I took more than I needed,
Such was my reckless desire.
