White Line on the Sand
Style: Music box

[Verse 1]
Somewhere the tide is drawing soft white lines below the stars
Quietly the dark is folding round you where you are
Nothing tonight can reach you here, not one small thing
You are held closer than the moon holds its light

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the whole wide night grow still
Let the hush of far off water carry you along
There is nowhere safer built than this

[Chorus]
Diane, the night has come to hold you soft and slow
Sleep is a shore where only gentle waves will go
You are the calm the whole dark sky leans toward
Diane, there's nothing waiting here to bring you low

[Verse 2]
Far off the foam keeps curling in and letting go again
Easy as breath, it never asks the sand to stay
You can rest the same way, loosening every worry
Morning will still be there however soft you sleep

[Chorus]
Diane, the night has come to hold you soft and slow
Sleep is a shore where only gentle waves will go
You are the calm the whole dark sky leans toward
Diane, there's nothing waiting here to bring you low

[Bridge]
Every star out there is just an old light settling down
No hurry in the dark, no reason to hold on tight

[Chorus]
Diane, the night has come to hold you soft and slow
Sleep is a shore where only gentle waves will go
You are the calm the whole dark sky leans toward
Diane, there's nothing waiting here to bring you low

[Outro]
Somewhere that white line still curls soft along the shore
Sleep now, Diane, you are held so gently, always
