    Story Behind the Song
    The first song Todd wrote after moving to
    the far West Coast

    Lyrics
    If the surf could talk, I know she'd ask
    "Do you think you're equal to the task?"
    If the surf could talk, she'd say
    "Beware I love you"

    So I'd answer very carefully
    And I'd ask if she'd be there for me
    And the surf says "always
    Beware I love you"

    The surf says "I want you like you want me
    Am I in you? Are you in me?
    Tell me"

    CHORUS:
    The surf talks
    And it knows what to say
    The surf talks
    I must learn to obey
    The gun cocks, the clock stops, the earth rocks, the surf talks
    The surf talks
    Puts its tongue on my skin
    The surf talks
    While it's sucking me in
    The door locks and unlocks, the veil drops, the surf talks

    She has promised me a beach of pearls
    And an endless wave, a perfect curl
    And she tells me always
    "Beware I love you"

    She will place the world inside my hand
    She will touch the soul of every man
    She will take my message
    "I'm here to love you"

    The surf says "I want you here inside me
    Am I in you? Are you in me?
    Tell me"

    (chorus)

    We are standing on a beach of pearls
    We are riding deep inside the curl
    And everybody all around the world
    Must surrender when your flag unfurls

    (chorus)
