White Foam, Soft Wall
Style: Vibraphone drift

[Verse 1]
The tide comes in so quietly to find the harbor wall
White foam is washing over stones that used to feel the sun
Everything out there is settling, soft and small
And here inside these arms, you're already the only one

[Chorus]
Eli, Eli, close your eyes now, let the dark be kind
Nothing in this whole wide night could ever touch you here
You are held the way the shoreline holds the tide
Eli, sleep is closer now than any far off fear

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past the harbor wall the water folds on water
Slow and sure, it never asks the pebbles to be still
You can rest the way the foam lets go completely
Nothing you must carry now, nothing you must will

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, let your breathing find the rhythm of the sea
There's no hurry in the dark, no clock you need to keep
Just this warmth, and you, and me, so easy

[Chorus]
Eli, Eli, close your eyes now, let the dark be kind
Nothing in this whole wide night could ever touch you here
You are held the way the shoreline holds the tide
Eli, sleep is closer now than any far off fear

[Bridge]
Every wave that comes back home has somewhere soft to land
And so do you, my love, right here, so near

[Chorus]
Eli, Eli, close your eyes now, let the dark be kind
Nothing in this whole wide night could ever touch you here
You are held the way the shoreline holds the tide
Eli, sleep is closer now than any far off fear

[Outro]
The foam still turns so gently by the old dark wall
And you are safe and drifting now, the softest of us all
