Driftwood
Style: Jazz standard

[Verse 1]
Grey beach, and the tide pulled back
Wood lying half sunk in the sand
Everything else the sea took
Yet somehow it left you standing here

[Pre-chorus]
Storms come and take what they want
Nothing out here stays whole for long
But you weathered down to something true

[Chorus]
Noelle, you're the one thing I can tell
Under grey skies you still ring like a bell
Everyone else the years wear thin
But you only carve in deeper, Noelle

[Verse 2]
No footprints left but our own
Salt air, and the light going soft
I keep finding you in the wreckage
The one piece that never gave in

[Pre-chorus]
Storms come and take what they want
Nothing out here stays whole for long
But you weathered down to something true

[Chorus]
Noelle, you're the one thing I can tell
Under grey skies you still ring like a bell
Everyone else the years wear thin
But you only carve in deeper, Noelle

[Bridge]
Some things wash out and never come home
You're the log that stayed, that I could hold

[Chorus]
Noelle, you're the one thing I can tell
Under grey skies you still ring like a bell
Everyone else the years wear thin
But you only carve in deeper, Noelle

[Outro]
Long after the water pulls away
You'll still be here, and so will I
