U2 lyrics : "Every Breaking Wave"

[Verse 1]
Every breaking wave on the shore
Tells the next one "there'll be one more"

Every gambler knows that to lose

It's what you're really there for

Someone else fears
Now I'm speaking to an answerphone
Like every fallen leaf on the breeze

Winter wouldn't leave it alone, alone

[Chorus]

If you go
If you go your way and I go mine
Are we so

Are we so helpless against the time?
Baby, every doubt of history
Knows that we're in love with defeat

Are we ready to be swept off our feet
And start chasing every breaking wave?



[Verse 2]
Every sailor knows that the sea

Is a friend made enemy
Every shipwrecked soul knows what it is
To live without intimacy

I thought I heard the captain's voice
It's hard to listen while you preach
Like every broken wave on the shore

This is as far as I could reach

[Chorus]

If you go
If you go your way and I go mine
Are we so

Are we so helpless against the time?
Baby, every doubt of history
Knows that we're in love with defeat

Are we ready to be swept off our feet
And start chasing every breaking wave?


[Bridge]
The sea knows where all the rocks
Are drowning is an ocean

You know where my heart is
The same place that yours has been
We know that we fear the wind

And it's all we have before we begin
Before we begin


[Chorus]
If you go
If you go your way and I go mine

Are we so
Are we so helpless against the time?
Baby, every doubt of history

Knows that we're in love with defeat
Are we ready to be swept off our feet
And start chasing every breaking wave?
