Foam and Shell
Style: Kalimba night

[Verse 1]
Soft foam slides over pebbles while the dark keeps watch tonight
Somewhere the gulls have folded into sleep on a far cliff
You are held closer than the tide is held by the moon
Rest now, your breathing slower than the smallest drifting skiff

[Chorus]
Danielle, the night has wrapped its quiet all around your bed
Nothing out there in the dark can ever reach you here
Sleep swimming warm beneath the hush that settles overhead
Danielle, you are the calm this whole wide dark holds dear

[Verse 2]
Pebbles keep their small cold shine beneath the washing sea
Every wave arrives so gently, giving more than it will take
You are cradled safer than a shell tucked out of reach
Nothing in this whole night means to leave you or forsake

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, let the far off cliff and sleeping gulls be still
Let the tide keep turning soft while you sink low and slow
Something in the dark tonight is leaning in to say

[Chorus]
Danielle, the night has wrapped its quiet all around your bed
Nothing out there in the dark can ever reach you here
Sleep swimming warm beneath the hush that settles overhead
Danielle, you are the calm this whole wide dark holds dear

[Bridge]
No storm has ever touched this shore while you lie safe and still
Every gull upon that cliff is dreaming just like you

[Chorus]
Danielle, the night has wrapped its quiet all around your bed
Nothing out there in the dark can ever reach you here
Sleep swimming warm beneath the hush that settles overhead
Danielle, you are the calm this whole wide dark holds dear

[Outro]
Let the foam keep sliding soft over pebbles worn and round
You are loved as deep as any dark the sea has found
