She'll dive into anything

She's got the golden ring

She's got the moon in her hair



To touch her is permanent

Salt on her satin skin

It's all okay when she's there



I don't want to

But I have to 

Leave it all up in the air



When she comes in waves

And then slips away

And I wish she'd stay

But you can't always get what you want

And she comes in waves

Here she comes



She's pretty when she smiles

And it goes on for miles

Finds me wherever I am



Then I wake up alone

Like a bird that has flown

Into something I don't understand



Check the rear-view mirror

Watch it all wash away once again



When she comes in waves

And then slips away

And I wish she'd stay

But you can't always get what you want

And she comes in waves



Don't know what I'm doing

It's pushing and pulling me underneath

It's hard to breathe



And I know that tonight

I'll be thinking it might

Be the last time that she leaves



She's here when she's here, then she's gone



When she comes in waves

And then slips away

And I wish she'd stay

But you can't always get what you want

And she comes in waves

Here she comes

Here she comes

She comes in waves
