Every Breaking Wave Lyrics - Sonsgs Of Ascent - U2

Every breaking wave on the shore 

Tells the next one there'll be one more 

And every gambler knows that to lose 

Is what you're really there for 

Summer I was fearless 

Now I speak into an answer phone 

Like every falling leaf on the breeze 

Winter wouldn't leave it alone 

Alone 

If you go? 

If you go your way and I go mine 

Are we so? 

Are we so helpless against the tide? 

Baby every dog on the street 

Knows that we're in love with defeat 

Are we ready to be swept off our feet 

And stop chasing

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Every breaking wave 

... 

Every sailor knows that the sea 

Is a friend made enemy 

And 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 

... 

If you go? 

If you go your way and I go mine 

Are we so? 

Are we so helpless against the tide? 

Baby every dog on the street 

Photos 

Knows that we're in love with defeat 

Are we ready to be swept off our feet 

And stop chasing 

Every breaking wave? 

... 

The sea knows where are the rocks 

And drowning is no sin 

You know where my heart is 

The same place that yours has been 

We know that we fear to win 

And so we end before we begin 

Before we begin 

... 

If you go? 

If you go your way and I go mine 

Are we so? 

Are we so helpless against the tide? 

Baby every dog on the street 

Knows that we're in love with defeat 

Are we ready to be swept off our feet 

... 

And stop chasing 

Every breaking wave
