Wave
Briana Buckmaster Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We gotta get through today
If you lead then I will follow
If you think you know the way
There's a problem down at will call
'Cause you weren't on the list
I try to comfort you, that's my fault
And if you think that I can save you
Then I'm throwing you the rope
But I'm up against the wave
Give me something to believe in
'Cause I'm shoring up on hope
And I'm up against a wave
The odds are up against you
The damage has been done
But I really do like our chances
Aw baby I got a hunch
And if you think that I can save you
Then I'm throwing you the rope
But I'm up against the wave
Give me something to believe in
'Cause I'm shoring up on hope
And I'm up against a wave
We could wait until tomorrow
We gotta get through today
If you lead then I will follow
If you think you know the way
