Tide Pulse — The Ember

Verse

Salt on the boardwalk, sneakers untied

Clock on the tower says we still got time

Your phone in your pocket, on silent, ignored

Nobody's checking who's keeping score

Neon reflecting off the wet street below

Bassline crawls up through the soles of my toes

You spin like the current, I follow the pull

Every beat pulling the tension out full

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear the water calling us in?

Nothing to lose, everything to win

Say you'll stay till the moon lets go

Cause the night's got a rhythm we already know

Chorus

Tide pulse rising, steady and slow

Free tonight, we let it go

No clock, no chain, just skin and sound

Tide pulse pulling us around

Waves keep coming, we don't fight

This is ours, just for tonight

Tide pulse, tide pulse, free tonight

Verse

Streetlight flickers like it's dancing too

Cracked pavement warm from the day we came through

Somebody's laughing three blocks away

We steal that joy, make it part of our stage

Bracelets and bare arms catching the glow

Strangers turn family for one song, then go

Every step temporary, every breath on loan

But right now this rhythm feels like home

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear the water calling us in?

Nothing to lose, everything to win

Say you'll stay till the moon lets go

Cause the night's got a rhythm we already know

Chorus

Tide pulse rising, steady and slow

Free tonight, we let it go

No clock, no chain, just skin and sound

Tide pulse pulling us around

Waves keep coming, we don't fight

This is ours, just for tonight

Tide pulse, tide pulse, free tonight

Bridge

Tomorrow the water goes back to the sea

Takes the footprints, but it won't take me

Cause I carried it home in the way that I move

Some things you dance, you don't gotta prove

Chorus

Tide pulse rising, steady and slow

Free tonight, we let it go

No clock, no chain, just skin and sound

Tide pulse pulling us around

Waves keep coming, we don't fight

This is ours, just for tonight

Tide pulse, tide pulse, free tonight
