Jeff Bates My Wave
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
