Perfect wave (Perfekte Welle)

I have recalled a great song from 2004. Even though it's in German I like it VERY much. I found a translation into English and the lyrics are great.



Perfect wave

A dream came along with every wave
But dreams pass
Your board is dusty
Your doubts bubble over
You’ve waited your entire life
You’ve hoped that it exists
Almost lost all your faith
And didn’t move at all

Now it’s slowly approaching you
The water hits you in the face
Your life passes by like a movie
You can’t believe that it's gonna break

That’s the perfect wave, that's the perfect day
Just get carried away, don’t think about it at all
That’s the perfect wave, that's the perfect day
There’s more than you know, there’s more than you say

Your hands are already numb
You’ve got salt in your eyes
Between tears and dust
It’s difficult to still have hope
You’ve waited your entire life
Never counted the waves
You didn’t want any of it
Have lived your life way too fast

Now it’s slowly approaching you
The water hits you in the face
Your life passes by like a movie
You can’t believe that it's gonna break

That’s the perfect wave, that's the perfect day
Just get carried away, don’t think about it at all
That’s the perfect wave, that's the perfect day
There’s more than you know, there’s more than you say

You stand right in the storm and shout: I’m here, I’m free!
All I ask for is time. I’m here, I’m free!
