Mile upon mile, got no direction. We're all playin' the same game. We're all lookin' for redemption. Just to pray, to say the name. So caught up now in pretendin' That what we're seekin' is the truth. I'm just lookin' for a happy endin'. All I'm lookin' for is you. You came upon me, wave on wave. You're the reason I'm still here, yeah. Am I the one you were sent to save? You came upon me, wave on wave. I wandered out into the water, An' I thought that I might drown. I don't know what I was after, Just know I was goin' down. And that's when she found me. Not afraid anymore. She said: "You know, I always had you, baby. "Just waitin' for you to find what you were lookin' for." You came upon me, wave on wave. You're the reason I'm still here, yeah. Am I the one you were sent to save? You came upon me, wave on wave. Wave on wave. Wave on wave. You came upon me, wave on wave. You're the reason I'm still here, yeah. Am I the one you were sent to save? You came upon me, wave on wave. The clouds broke and the angels cried: "You ain't gotta wipe the floor." That's why it put me in your hands. When it came upon me wave on wave. You came upon me, wave on wave. You're the reason I'm still here, yeah. Am I the one you were sent to save? You came upon me, wave on wave. To fade. You came upon me, wave on wave. You're the reason I'm still here, yeah. Am I the one you were sent to save? You came upon me, wave on wave.
