Lyrics
Making Waves
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The ship went down with no survivors, no one being found
The divers filed in their report assumptions on their lot
Misreading or error of judgment
Who knows we'll never be certain why it ended up
That the case was simply shut
Communication breakdown, signals cracking up
Communication breakdown radar's packing up
So be prepared to jump, if you won't talk when you must
Making waves on a stormy sea is a recipe
For making enemies of lovers
Making waves on a violent heat
Is sure to lead to only misery between brothers
Making waves
The plane came down with two men flying
The girl in the tower was crying, she heard the mayday call
There's a first time for us all
No power or engine leaking
They sent the salvage team in for the proof of what went wrong
But it was burned up in the box
Communication breakdown, signals cracking up
Communication breakdown, radar's packing up
So be prepared to jump if you can't talk when you must
Or you can't talk one to one
Making waves on a stormy sea is a recipe for making enemies of lovers
Making waves on a violent heat
Is sure to lead to only misery between brothers
Making waves…making waves
