Saltwater Lullaby (Version 2)

Verse

Your coat's on the hook by the door

Salt still drying in your hair

Six a.m. and you're not there yet

Window fogging like you just breathed

I'm singing softly to the wet glass

Pre-Chorus

Something about the way it falls

Always pulls me out of my wall

Every drop that hits the pane

Sounds like your name, sounds like rain

Chorus

Saltwater lullaby, drifting slow and wide

Washing everything I thought was mine

Nothing left to hold, nothing left to hide

Just you, just blue, just this tide

Verse

Rain keeps time with the clock on the wall

Your boots are drying by the hall mat

I'm not scared of this at all

Every wave that washes through my chest

Pre-Chorus

Something about the way it falls

Always pulls me out of my walls

Every drop that hits the pane

Sounds like your name, sounds like rain

Chorus

Saltwater lullaby, drifting slow and wide

Washing everything I thought was mine

Nothing left to hold, nothing left to hide

Just you, just blue, just this tide

Bridge

Maybe losing me is a mercy

Maybe the flood was never meant to clear

I'm not drowning — I'm becoming something clearer

Something soft like morning after the storm

Chorus

Saltwater lullaby, drifting slow and wide

Washing everything I thought was mine

Nothing left to hold, nothing left to hide

Just you, just blue, just this tide
