Sleep Next To The Tide

The moon is low,

the waves are slow

The night is breathing soft and free

If the world feels heavy on your chest

You can lay your heart right next to me

I know the storms can shake your bones

I know the dark can steal your light

But I’ll be here,

steady as the ocean

Holding you through every night

So sleep next to the tide

with me

Let the quiet wash your fear away

I’ll keep you safe in the rhythm of the sea

Till the morning finds a softer day

If your thoughts start drifting out too far

I’ll pull them back with gentle hands

You don’t have to face the night alone

I’ll stay with you where the shoreline stands

I know the world

can turn too fast

I know tomorrow feels unknown

But you’re not lost,

not while I’m here

You never have to walk alone

And when tomorrow changes us When the sunrise paints us new I’ll

still be standing where you are

I’ll still be reaching out for you

If the tides pull us apart someday

I’ll swim the whole world just to find the place

Where your heartbeat meets the waves

The place where your hand

fits mine

So sleep next to the tide

with me

Let the quiet wash your fear away

I’ll keep you safe in the rhythm of the sea

Till the morning finds a softer day

Stay close tonight... stay close to me...

The tide will keep our hearts in time

And when tomorrow changes us...

You’ll still be yours...

and I’ll still be mine (mmm)
