It took some time
But now I can see my faults
And Ive made up my mind now
See how the water falls
Its so personal
That I could not come to terms wiht
The choices that Ive made
Well, it seems Im here to stay...

The waves are strong
But they wont pull me down
I know right from wrong
And thats the strength Ive found
Its been a while
But I think Ive got it now
The waves are strong but they wont pull me
Down

Down on myself for doing things
I said Id never do, well
Ive made mistakes, yeah
All part of growing up its true
We see eye to eye
But there was no way for me to know
Until I tried Ive seen the lies
I know which way to go

Foget what Ive learned lear to forget
I never wanted this
Im happy with the way it was
With success that I have earned comes hatred
I never wanted this
I really never wanted this
Down
The waves are strong
But they wont pull me down
I know right from wrong
And thats the strength Ive found
Its been a while
But I think Ive got it now
The waves are strong but they wont pull me
Down
