[ Pat Green Lyrics ]

Wave on Wave

Mile upon mile got no direction,
We're all playin' the same game.
We're all looking for redemption,
Just afraid to say the name.

So caught up now in pretending,
That what we're seekin' is the truth.
I'm just looking for a happy ending,
All I'm looking 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,
And I thought that I might drown
I dunno what I was after,
I just know I was goin' down.

That's when she found me
I'm not afraid anymore
She said “You know I always had ya baby
Just waitin for you to find what you were looking for.”

You came upon me wave on wave
You're the reason I'm still here.
Am I the one you were sent to save
When you came upon me wave on wave.

Wave on wave
Wave on wave

And you came upon me wave on wave
You're the reason I'm still here.
Am I the one you were sent to save
When you came upon me wave on wave.

The clouds broke and the angels cried
You ain't gotta walk alone
That's why he put me in your way
And you came upon me wave on wave.

Thank you Ilza,

It now makes sense!! I thank you oh so kindly! How did you recognize it? Just curious.
