we are the wave
belafonte, harry
the sea will wash against the rock
the sea will wash against the rock
but before too long the rock is gone
the wind will blow against the stone
the wind will blow against the stone
but before too long the stone is gone
the stone will soon give way
and soon the rock must go
and soon the rock must go
you cannot hold back the tide
the tide must rise the tide must rise
its the law of earth and skies
its as natural as day to night
as natural as black and white
the flower can grow up through the stone
it's a truth that we have always known
and soon the rock must go
and soon the rock must go
and soon the rock must go
