Crescendo

Did you hear that crescendo?
That's what you are to me
You are a wave, a rolling breaker
Getting louder year by year

You are a swell, a whitecap on the sea
First you break and then you flee
You say, only fools have tried to climb you
Like an ocean wave for them to ride
You keep growing, they keep falling, as I keep waiting for the tide

Did you hear that crescendo? You will carry me away
You say, only fools have tried to climb you
Like an ocean wave for them to ride
I'm waiting on the beach of E-flat
For you to come and be my tide

I'm on my way up
I'm on my way up
I'm on my way up, to you

Did you hear that crescendo, breaking over me?
I want to make it to tomorrow
Wash over me again

I'm on my way up
I'm on my way up
I'm on my way up, to you
