Slower Than the Tide
Style: Dream pop

[Verse 1]
Footprints by the pebbles fade slow
warm sand keeping what we let go
you turned back once to find me there
that look still glows

[Pre-chorus]
Nothing here is loud or fast
tide comes soft and holds what lasts
something in me leans toward you

[Chorus]
Ayla, you're the reason I stay
not some fire that burns away
you're the calm I didn't plan for
steady as the grey

[Verse 2]
Grey stones hold their place through weather
you and I still fit together
water smooths what used to cut
nothing feels like never

[Chorus]
Ayla, you're the reason I stay
not some fire that burns away
you're the calm I didn't plan for
steady as the grey

[Bridge]
Let the water come and take what it takes
some things wash out, but this one stays
you're the print that never quite disappears

[Chorus]
Ayla, you're the reason I stay
not some fire that burns away
you're the calm I didn't plan for
steady as the grey

[Outro]
Sand forgets, but I remember
every step that led me here
