Washed Up Like Light
Style: Chamber folk

[Verse 1]
Something pale was left on the sand
Bright against the dark and the wet
I almost walked on past where it lay
But I think of you and I can't forget

[Pre-chorus]
You could be so easy to miss
Small and quiet against the tide
But once I see you, I always see you

[Chorus]
Mali, you shine when the light is low
Soft in a world that forgets to look
You're the one thing I always know
Steady as the tide, plain as a book

[Verse 2]
Driftwood scattered, grey and bare
Half sunk down in the dark wet ground
But you're the thing that still catches me there
The one clear note in all that sound

[Bridge]
I don't need the sand to explain it
I don't need the tide to agree
You're the calm I return to at evening
The only home that follows me

[Chorus]
Mali, you shine when the light is low
Soft in a world that forgets to look
You're the one thing I always know
Steady as the tide, plain as a book

[Outro]
Something pale still rests on the shore
And I love you the same as before
