The water was rising and the rain wouldn't stop
And I was sinking down further with every drop
But then she came and swept me away
Oh but I don't want to drown in that sea of love all over gain

I don't wanna ride the wave
I don't wanna ride the wave
I don't wanna ride the wave, no more

Now I've been here before and it's so hard to resist
The tempting allure of loves danderous kiss
One little slip and your drowning in your own tears
Just trying to get back to the shore before the tide comes back in

I don't wanna ride the wave
I don't wanna ride the wave
I don't wanna ride the wave, no more

Well she looks so good to me
Makes it so hard to resist, her kiss

Now the sun is shining and I'm feeling fine
I try to keep my distance now from the waterline
But one look in her eyes and drifting back out to sea
Oh no ones gonna save me this time I'm in deep

I don't wanna ride the wave
I don't wanna ride the wave
I don't wanna ride the wave, no more

I don't wanna ride the wave
I don't wanna ride the wave
I don't wanna ride the wave, no more

No I don't wanna ride, I don't wanna ride
I don't wanna ride I don't wanna ride
I don't wanna ride the wave
No more
