Amongst The Waves

What used to be a house of cards
Has turned into a reservoir
Save the tears that were waterfalling
Let's go swim tonight, darling

And once outside the undertow
Just you and me, and nothing more
If not for love, I would be drowning
I've seen it work both ways

But I am up riding high amongst the waves

Where I can feel like I
Have a soul that has been saved
Where I can feel like I've
Put away my early grave

I gotta say it now
Better loud than too late

Remember back, the early days
When you were young, and less amazed
Suddenly the channel changed
The first time you saw blood

Cut to later, now you're strong
You've bled yourself, the wounds are gone
It's rare when there is nothing wrong
Survived and you're amongst the fittest

Love ain't love until you feel it
Up riding high amongst the waves

I can feel like I
Have a soul that has been saved
I can see the light
Coming through the clouds in rays

I gotta say it now
Better loud than too late
I gotta say it now
Better loud than too late

Hey...yeah...

Riding high amongst the waves
I can feel like I
Have a soul that has been saved
I can see the light
Coming through the clouds in rays

I gotta say it now
Better loud than too late

I gotta say it now
Better loud than too late

Say it now
Better loud than too late

Pearl Jam music and lyrics

Most people love Pearl Jam or hate them, I love them...I know this is sort of a love song but to me now,  this is for the Oceans, Seas and Gulf of Mexico.. may they heal.
Watch this for the music or just the beauty of the ocean..."There is only one ocean for everyone"

Not a big Pearl Jam fan, but I loved the video, and I am a big fan of yours and I respect your choices.

[Ladysue]

I really enjoyed this song. Your lyrics sing out with heart. Just a lovely write...

[An owl on the moon]

I loved the feel and form of your vibrant lyrics. You tell a story of the past, and balance it with the emotional life of the present. May healing come.. oh please yes...

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

I always like Pearl Jam but never heard this song... Love can either pull you under or take you on an adventure... I like your take on the song in other form.

I was fortunate growing up my father gave an appreciation of all music, he really opened my mind to it. I don't know what to say about the oil spill. It is something we are going to have to live with and I imagine it will take a long time for the earth to heal. I am sure they will find a way to make money off of this in the future.

Thank you for giving this song as hope for the Gulf of Mexico, I hope for healing as well.
