He had to go higher, he had to go higher When he's riding the waves
There's a boy that I adore But the boy loves surfing more
So I watched him from the shore Riding the waves, riding the waves
He survived when he's riding the waves
Every time the storm goes by And the waves are mountain high
Hear him cry, let's go, then bye Riding the waves, riding the waves
But he survived when he's riding the waves
He had to go higher, he had to go higher
Lost in the cold My heart is on fire, my heart is on fire
Baby, come on home
Suddenly he's tossed around Then I see him tumbling down
From the shore I watched him drown Riding the waves, riding the waves
He survived when he's riding the waves
But he survived when he's riding the waves
He had to go higher, he had to go higher Lost in the cold
My heart is on fire, my heart is on fire Baby, come on home
Reached his goal Where the waves no longer sfiddle
Now I walk along the shore
And I hear the oceans roar
And I know forevermore
He's riding the waves, riding the waves
He is mine
When he's riding the waves
Riding the waves
Riding the waves
The wild, wild waves
Riding the waves
Riding the waves
