lyrics

on every beach across the land
a patient surfer stands
longing only to be free

i am sitting in the sand
with my best board close at hand
and looking out on to the sea

and when i go to sleep at night i often dream
of riding the best wave i've ever seen...

aaaaaaaAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAaaaaaaaaaa
aaaaaaaAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAaaaaaaaaaa

i just wanna be in the barrel i wanna catch a wave!
i won't go home until i meet my grave!
i just wanna be in the barrel, sheltered from the sun!
nothing else could ever be as fun!

aaaaaAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaa

AAAAAaaaaaaaaAAAAAAA
aaaAAAaaaAAAAAAAAAAa
aaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

paddle out where the good waves are breaking
and wait for the right one to come

dropping in and my bent knees are shaking
but still i'm determined

to show you that i'm not just a baby
i'm a full on grown up dude

i'm surfing waves that are bigger than buildings
barreled through and through

here it comes: the barrel
here it comes: the barrel
i'm in....

emerging from dream land
and oh man it was grand
to be, but for a moment, happy
