Lyrics The Raveonettes

The Raveonettes

Black Wave

What if your heart rode a black wave

Told you it'd never come back home

What if that wave turned into thunder

Roared and crashed and left you all alone

What if that thunder turned into sunshine

Left you on a beach madly in love

What if that love turned into heartbreak

Left you on that wave where you once were.

What if your girl said she loved you

Told you she'd stay with you forever

What if forever turned into nothing

You saw here drive away in a beat up car.

What if that car turned into a fireball

Across the sky she burned while you just smiled

What if that smile turned into tears

You wiped away the broken dreams and more.

What if your life took a strange turn

Left you bewildered in the night

What if the night turned into day

I guess it always does so let's move on

What if we couldn't move on

I guess I'd rather die than stare at you

But what if death was your best friend

I guess I'd rather go right now than wait.
