Amongst The Waves
Artist: Pearl Jam
Composer: Pearl Jam
What used to be a house of cards
Has turned into a reservoir
Saved the tears that were waterfalling
Let’s go swim tonight, darling
& Once outside the undertow
Just you & me & 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
I can feel Like I
Have a soul that has been saved
I can feel like I
Put away my early grave
Gotta say it now
Better loud
Than too late
Remember back the early days
When you were young & thus 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 then where is nothing wrong
Survived & you’re amongst the fittest
Love ain’t love until you give it up
Riding hi 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
Gotta say it now
Better loud
than too late

WOW!
This song is absolutely AMAZING...along with the rest of the record...can't wait to hear it TONIGHT and TOMORROW NIGHT at the Key in Seattle! Been waiting for this day since July 2006...
Seems like this song might have grown out of the Icons show Ed did with Laird Hamilton...I remember Laird talking about how anger/rage fuels you when you're young, but then you become confused when you try to move on with your passion (surfing, singing) after you realize you're happy...great lyrics in this one.
Just a beautiful song.
That was more or less what I thought when I heard it. Making Peace with everything in life, wether it was good or bad. accept it and embrace it.
I beg of you to play this on oct. 1st. This is one of my fav. songs on the new record. And Just Breathe, I want to recommend it to my girlfriend; it's our 3 year anniversary on Oct. 2nd.
Best song on the album
wow.... please also play this all 4 nighs in philly. thank you. :)
I can feel like I
Put away my early grave
The key line to the whole album.
Thanks.
Singles for Backspacer should be: The Fixer, Supersonic, Amongst the Waves, Just Breathe, Got Some and Unthought Known. Waves and Breathe are my favourites. Lucky for me I heard them both when I saw them!
Powerful ending. Anyone else interpret Ed's last two notes as a tribute to MJ? :-)
