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 OK when she’s there
I don’t want to But I have to Leave it all up in the air
And 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
And 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
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 she leaves
She’s here when she’s here, then she’s gone
And 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
