[Verse 1]
Bare feet in the sand
Old flannel on my skin
Salt on my lips
You laughing in the wind
Seagulls drawing circles
Over all the noise I brought
Every heavy little heartbreak
Getting lighter than I thought
[Chorus]
I feel safe by the shore
When the waves crash
I want more
Let the white foam pull my worries
Back into the deep
I feel strong in the roar
Like I’ve been here before
Yeah the tide holds all the secrets
That I get to keep
I feel safe
Safe by the shore
[Verse 2]
Cold can in your jacket
You press it to my wrist (hey)
I flinch
Then start smiling
Didn’t know I’d missed this
Footprints disappearing
Right behind our backs
Guess some things fade easy
Guess some things fight back
[Chorus]
I feel safe by the shore
When the waves crash
I want more
Let the white foam pull my worries
Back into the deep
I feel strong in the roar
Like I’ve been here before
Yeah the tide holds all the secrets
That I get to keep
I feel safe
Safe by the shore
[Bridge]
Let the storm roll in
Let the dark clouds form
If the sky falls down
We can ride that swarm
If the world runs wild
I’ll just stand right here (right here)
With the water on my ankles
And your heartbeat in my ear
[Chorus]
I feel safe by the shore
When the waves crash
I want more
Let the white foam pull my worries
Back into the deep
I feel strong in the roar
Like I’ve been here before
Yeah the tide holds all the secrets
That I get to keep
I feel safe
Safe by the shore
