I don't wanna be another wave in the ocean,
I am a rock, not just another grain of sand.
(That's what I am)
Wanna be the one you run to when you need a shoulder,
I ain't a soldier, but I'm here to take a stand,
Because we can
She's in the kitchen staring out the window,
So tired of living life in black and white.
Right now she's missing those technicolor kisses,
When he turns down her light.
But lately he's feeling like a broken promise,
In the mirror staring down is doubt.
There's only one thing in this world that he knows,
He said forever and he'll never let her down.
I don't wanna be another wave in the ocean,
I am a rock not just another grain of sand.
(That's what I am)
Wanna be the one you run to when you need a shoulder,
I ain't a soldier, but I'm here to take a stand.
Because we can.
Tv and take-out on the coffee table,
Paper dishes, pour a glass of wine.
Turn down the sound and move a little closer,
and for the moment everything is alright.
I don't wanna be another wave in the ocean,
I am a rock not just another grain of sand.
(That's what I am)
Wanna be the one you run to when you need a shoulder,
I ain't a soldier, but I'm here to take a stand.
Because we can, our love can move a mountain,
We can, if you believe in we,
We can, just wrap your arms around me,
We can, we can.

I don't wanna be another wave in the ocean,
I am a rock not just another grain of sand.
(That's what I am)
Wanna be the one you run to when you need a shoulder,
I ain't a soldier, but I'm here to take a stand.
I don't wanna be another wave in the ocean,
I am a rock not just another grain of sand.
(That's what I am)
Wanna be the one you run to when you need a shoulder,
I ain't a soldier, but I'm here to take a stand.
Because we can, our love can move a mountain,
We can, if you believe in we,
We can, just wrap your arms around me,
We can, we can
Because we can
You kinda have to admire Bon Jovi for refusing to adapt to any advances in modern music over the last 30 years. But claiming, with no shame, that “our love can move a mountain,” this tale of a man, quite appropriately, striving for dependability is as dumb and cliched as stadium rock gets.
