Sitting on my surfboard
Waves flowing underneath
Looking back at the distant shore
Currents swirling at my feet
No thoughts of passion
No thoughts of pain
The surf shares its lesson
Teaches it to all again, and again
Oh, these tubular meditations
On this water clear as glass
Forget those damning agitations
Waves make all the stresses pass
Why catch the waves in
That's not the only goal
Surf washes away all sin
And leaves the surfer feeling whole
Watching grains of sand
Suspended in the waves
Feeling my cares just slip away
It's not religious, but it saves
Oh, these tubular meditations
In this water clear as glass
Forget those damning agitations
Waves make all my stresses pass
