[Verse 1] Cold sand on my hands Your imprint in the salt and foam I count the breaths between the breaks Pretend you’re walking home [Chorus] The rhythm of the waves Matches your absent heart Crash Pull Fade Tearing me apart I press my ear to the dark Wet shore Like it could beat for you once more The rhythm of the waves Matches your absent heart [Verse 2] Your sweater in my backpack Smells like rain and cheap red wine I talk into the wind again It answers back in crooked time [Chorus] The rhythm of the waves Matches your absent heart Crash Pull Fade Tearing me apart I press my ear to the dark Wet shore Like it could beat for you once more The rhythm of the waves Matches your absent heart [Bridge] How far can an echo travel? How long till the water wins? If I wade out past the sandbar Will I feel you in my skin? (oh) [Chorus] The rhythm of the waves Matches your absent heart Crash Pull Stay Pinned under the stars I press my face to the rising tide Swear I feel you on the other side The rhythm of the waves Matches your absent heart
