The Wave (Demo Version) - Van Der Graaf Generator

Written by:Peter Hammill

The wave hits the beach

Writing words on the sand

To the academic man

This could be the answer

In fact it's no more than a hunch

Still we try to eat it

I think we're all pretty out to lunch

The wave is out of reach

Trailing words from the hand

Only air can understand

Semaphore on the shoreline

Waiting for distance to recede

Unhappily imperfect

When we should be happy just to breathe

But with each bated breath

So present tense

We want to know we want it sure

It don't make sense

So I'll do mine and you do yours

But let's not trade sand and sea

For brick and cement

The wave hits the beach

Laps around abandoned clothes

Wants to share a joke with those

Who'll brave the breakers

Who'll break bread rather than pray

While the definition maker's

Lost in the small print of the day

The words are only pictures

That the next wave wipes away
