This song refers to the popular saying among surfers and sailors, that if you stay on the beach and watch the waves, the seventh one will always be the strongest. Sting actually said that he wrote the song after a bunch of surfers told him that. He also said the World is now caught in the middle of a sixth wave of violance and that the seventh wave is supposed to end all that.
Very optimistic song.
