The Wave

My face has never been one to betray me
It lies when i need it to
It sends out a white blinding light in your eyes
'Till i figure out what i'm gonna do
We meet in the kitchen and roll on the floor
And i look in your face for something restoring
And take from you barely enough for a lifetime of
Holding out on you
Holding out on you
I see my storyline within you
And i see the river rise to meet you
'Cause you started you started
Harnessing the wave
My face has never been one to betray me
It lies when i need it to
But lately it seems you been laughing at me
So i guess you're the one i can't fool
I see my storyline within you
And i see the river rise to meet you
And i see my angel kneel to kiss you
Cause you started you started
Harnessing the wave
You started
You started honey
