Waves of Time

roll through our lives

By Tony MartelloPublished 9 months ago Updated 9 months ago 1 min read
Lala & I

Chasing down the sun, so golden and free,

We join the ocean’s embrace, can you hear it calling-you and me?

The waves whisper secrets, secrets of old,

Telling stories of the wild waves, rippled in gold.

And the wind carries laughter through the salt in the air,

In a world where we dance without many cares.

Dance with me once more, as the end unfolds

Dance with me, until we are no more

Oh, whoa…like riding the waves of time,

Sailing through the storm, we are just fine.

With the earth beneath us and the sky above,

In this moment we find the truth of love.

We’re alive, we’re alive, we’re alive in the waves of time.

Underneath the moonlight, we trace our dreams,

Through the cracks of the night, where the starlight beam.

The shore sings a lullaby soft and sweet,

With the world at our feet, where the ocean meets.

And the firelight flickers hope in the dark,

We find the spark that lights up our hearts.

Oh, whoa…we’re riding the waves of time,

Sailing through the storm, we’ll be just fine.

With the earth beneath us and the sky above,

In this moment we find the truth of love.

We’re alive, we’re alive, we’re alive in the waves of time.

Leaving no trace in this place, just whispers in the sand,

Our world’s spinning wild in the palm of our hands.

During the crash of the tides, we’ll never fade,

Cuz the waves of time carry the love we’ve made.

Oh, whoa…we’re riding the waves of time,

Sailing through the storm, we’ll be just fine.

With the earth beneath us and the sky above,

In this moment we find the truth of love.

We’re alive, we’re alive, we’re alive in the waves of time.

And in the silence of the ocean’s rhyme,

We’ll be forever free, riding the waves of time.
