As I ride in the motor tide
I look for somewhere
All I see is other faces
All I find is nowhere
I like a place or some place
That no-one gets to
She says "A town is just a town, full stop"
But what does she know?
Here comes a great wave
To wash it all away
No piece of gla** or chrome remains
Here comes that wave again
See how fast it flows
We'll wash this place right down the drain
In the dark a thousand cars
Hiss by my window
A steel tide on a asphalt beach
They come and they go
I hear a beat in the motor seat
That I could die to
She says "A town is just a town, full stop"
But what does she know?
Here comes a great wave
To wash it all away
No piece of gla** or chrome remains
Here comes that wave again
See how fast it flows
We'll wash this place right down the drain
Here comes a great wave (x 4)
Here comes that wave again
