She´ll dive into anything
She´s got the golden ring
She´s got the moon in her hair

To touch her is permanent
Salt on her satin skin
It´s all okay when she´s there

I don´t want to
But I have to
Leave it all up in the air

When she comes in waves
And then slips away
And I wish she´d stay
But you can´t always get what you want
And she comes in waves
Here she comes

She´s pretty when she smiles
And it goes on for miles
Finds me wherever I am

Then I wake up alone
Like a bird that has flown
Into something I don´t understand

Check the rear-view mirror
Watch it all wash away once again

When she comes in waves
And then slips away
And I wish she´d stay
But you can´t always get what you want
And she comes in waves

Don´t know what I´m doing
It´s pushing and pulling me underneath
It´s hard to breathe

And I know that tonight
I´ll be thinking it might
Be the last time that she leaves

She´s here when she´s here, then she´s gone

When she comes in waves
And then slips away
And I wish she´d stay
But you can´t always get what you want
And she comes in waves
Here she comes
Here she comes
She comes in waves
