Waves out on the ocean, crashin' on the shore
A strong wind blows through our love
Whippin' up a storm, when I felt it coming
It chilled me to the bone

All I wanna do is go out running tonight
Breathing fire into the cold unknown

I wanna run away, now I wanna stay
Don't know my own heart anymore
If I could find peace then
I would retrace every step 'til the day I was born

I'm gonna rise above this stormy love
Ride it out, ride it in
I'm gonna rise above this stormy love

I'm not gonna lose again
I'm gonna rise above this stormy love
'Cause it's changing again

I swam out in the ocean of love to soothe my aching soul
But warm love is not enough to drown the trouble I hold
I gave away the precious things that I should call my own
My heart, my soul, my hopes
My dreams and I'm staying at an empty hole

I recognize the look in these eyes
I've felt this way before
I've gotta face what I can't erase
So these ghosts will return to my door

I'm gonna rise above this stormy love
Ride it out, ride it in
I'm gonna rise above this stormy love

I'm not gonna lose again
I'm gonna rise above this stormy love
Ride it out, ride it in
I'm gonna rise above this stormy love

No other way to win I got to sink or swim
Oh oh, stormy love, could I find love again ?

I'm gonna rise above this stormy love
I'm gonna rise above this stormy love
Ride it out, ride it in

I'm gonna rise above this stormy love
Ride it out, ride it in
I'm gonna rise above this stormy love
Ride it out, ride it in
