Foam on the Shore Style: Rain and piano [Verse 1] The foam slides over pebbles where no moonlight ever falls and something in that darkness still remembers how to call it calls the tide in gently, it never has to shout so let the hush around you slowly smooth your worry out [Pre-chorus] Somewhere past the water the whole sky's holding still and every wave that reaches you is climbing up the hill just to bring you something soft before it has to go [Chorus] Samuel, the night has wrapped you gently like a flannel close and warm around you like the fur upon a camel Samuel, you're carried safe on water dark as coal every little wave tonight is rocking you to whole [Verse 2] No moon is needed here to show you that you're loved the stones don't need the starlight to feel the tide above and you don't need a single light to know you're safe and held the dark can hold a treasure just as softly as it's felt [Pre-chorus] Somewhere past the water the whole sky's holding still and every wave that reaches you is climbing up the hill just to bring you something soft before it has to go [Chorus] Samuel, the night has wrapped you gently like a flannel close and warm around you like the fur upon a camel Samuel, you're carried safe on water dark as coal every little wave tonight is rocking you to whole [Bridge] Rest now, let the far horizon keep its quiet line you were never meant to watch it, only close your eyes and shine nothing in the dark can touch the warmth you carry through [Chorus] Samuel, the night has wrapped you gently like a flannel close and warm around you like the fur upon a camel Samuel, you're carried safe on water dark as coal every little wave tonight is rocking you to whole [Outro] The foam will keep on turning over pebbles through the dark and you'll stay warm and wanted long after it departs Free from Songbird: lovesongbirds.com
