Woke up worrying about the rain and bills to pay Counting all the things that got in the way The complications building through the week Made my shoulders heavy, made my spirit weak But the ocean waves keep rolling to the shore And the open road keeps asking for more In the morning light it's suddenly clear All those worries disappear They don't matter here Ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh Watched the drifting clouds rearrange the sky Started asking all the reasons why We tie ourselves in knots and hold so tight When everything you need is in plain sight 'Cause the ocean waves keep rolling to the shore And the open road keeps asking for more In the morning light it's suddenly clear All those worries disappear They don't matter here Maybe life's not meant to be controlled and planned But held like water in an open hand The more I try to grip and hold on The more the simple truth is known 'Cause the ocean waves keep rolling to the shore And the open road keeps asking for more In the morning light it's suddenly clear All those worries disappear They don't matter here The clouds don't worry where they drift The waves don't fret about their shift I guess they just... don't matter
