What the Tide Can't Take
Style: Chamber folk

[Verse 1]
The water comes and takes the sand away
I watch the small marks disappear
But you're not something made of sand
You're the one thing here that stays clear

[Pre-chorus]
Everything else keeps changing shape
Every certainty runs thin
But there's a place that doesn't move

[Chorus]
Evan, you're the mark that doesn't fade
Steady when the tide comes in
Nothing washes you away from me
Evan, that's the truth I'm sure of, Evan

[Verse 2]
I used to think love left no trace
Just footprints that the sea undid
But you kept showing up at dawn
Long after every wave had hid

[Pre-chorus]
Everything else keeps changing shape
Every certainty runs thin
But there's a place that doesn't move

[Chorus]
Evan, you're the mark that doesn't fade
Steady when the tide comes in
Nothing washes you away from me
Evan, that's the truth I'm sure of, Evan

[Bridge]
Let the water take whatever it wants
I'm not afraid of what it takes
You're not written in the sand
You're the ground the whole shore makes

[Chorus]
Evan, you're the mark that doesn't fade
Steady when the tide comes in
Nothing washes you away from me
Evan, that's the truth I'm sure of, Evan

[Outro]
The water can have the sand tonight
You're the one thing it won't find
