Saltwater Still Holding On (версия 2)

Verse

The water's moving slow at the shoreline now

Still pulling things I thought were gone somehow

Salt on my skin like a memory stain

I'm searching for a shadow that won't remain

Your mother sent some mangos, said you'll be back soon

But every wave keeps asking if this is all true

The sand between my toes remembers your stride

And the sun up here still thinks it's time to ride

Pre-Chorus

Am I losing ground or finding a way to keep

The undertow of what we had, it won't let me sleep

Chorus

Saltwater still holding on to something inside

Still pulling at the shoreline with every tide

Saltwater still holding on to what you said

And my heart is a compass that can't be shed

Verse

A fisherman came by and asked for your name

I told him I don't know where he lives or where it's not the same

He said maybe someday the waves will set things right

Maybe the undertow just needs more light

I waded in the shallow, felt the water climb

Tried to find a current that matches my mind

But every ripple reminds me you're still gone

And I'm left here singing this lonely song

Pre-Chorus

Am I losing ground or finding a way to keep

The undertow of what we had, it won't let me sleep

Chorus

Saltwater still holding on to something inside

Still pulling at the shoreline with every tide

Saltwater still holding on to what you said

And my heart is a compass that can't be shed

Bridge

Maybe this isn't goodbye

Maybe it's just a different tide

Maybe someday I'll learn to let go of your name

But till then, the saltwater stays

Chorus

Saltwater still holding on to something inside

Still pulling at the shoreline with every tide

Saltwater still holding on to what you said

And my heart is a compass that can't be shed
