Every Breaking Wave

U2 · Other Songs - U2

Every breaking wave

on the shore till the next one

there'll be one more



Every gambler knows

that to lose

is what you're really there for



Somewhere else, fearlessness

now I'm speaking to an answerphone



Every falling leaf on the breeze

winter wouldn't leave her alone



Ay hey now,Ay hey now



I don't know if I'm that strong

I don't know if I'm that strong



Don't know if I'm that strong

To be somebody to need someone



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 master's voice

It's hard to listen when you preach

Like every broken wave on the shore

This is as far as I can reach



Ay hey now,Ay hey now



I don't know if I'm that strong

I don't know if I'm that strong



Don't know if I'm that strong

Got to be somebody to need someone



The waves know we're on the rocks

Drowning is no sin



You know my heart is the same place

yours has been



We know the fear

with the end

before it begins



aah,aah,aah,aah

aah,aah,aah,oooh,oooh

aah,aah,aah,aah

aah,aah,aah,oooh,oooh



The waves know we're on the rocks

Drowning is no sin



We'll know

my heart is the same place

yours has been



We know the fear

with the end

before it begins
