It's about how you should not give up your dreams, no matter how hard it is, because the perfect opportunity to make them reality may come after all.
What I love about this song is how the music and the surfing metaphor in the lyrics and the implicit meaning of the lyrics all go together. I LOVE the (mostly instrumental) part after the bridge, which is very subdued and the sounds are all soft -- because the perfect wave has come and you've ridden it, and now you're under water for a moment! Then you break through the surface, and the regular rock beat of the song returns. Brilliant.
