I'm not waving to you I'm drowning And I hope for you to see I'm not waving to you I'm drowning So why you waving back at me I'm so tired of fighting the waves I feel like going down So desperately trying to be saved Lend that hand your waving Pull me aground As I'm calling out to you I wonder Why my cry ain't getting through Then a thought came to me As I'm going under
Maybe you were drowning too I'm caught in a tide of dismay That I cannot defy There's something you're trying to say Now I know you're waving Waving goodbye So many waves So many waves So many hands are waving So many hands are pulling me down Below My tears Raining so long Keep on crying Keep on crying Keep on rising Keep on rising
