[Verse 1] The tide finds the shore where the old waves broke A body turns slowly, the water takes hold The salt on the skin, the blue in the lungs A quiet becomes a whole world of drums The hands open wide, the feet leave the ground The breath draws a map through the turning around No one commands what the current can do The sea and the body move as one [Pre-Chorus] The water rises The body answers The border thins The pulse grows stronger The tide comes nearer The breath runs deep The shore lets go The sea runs free [Chorus] The wave meets the body The body meets the wave One breath, one turning One tide, one shape The water moves through The bones answer back The shore and the ocean Come together at last [Verse 2] The knees find the rhythm, the ribs keep time The green of the world slips through the mind A golden pattern opens in the air The edges loosen; the whole world shares The hands trace circles, the feet find the floor The old walls bend as the water rolls through The body is listening, the tide is near The sea has a language the bones understand [Pre-Chorus] The water rises The body answers The border thins The pulse grows stronger The tide comes nearer The breath runs deep The shore lets go The sea runs free [Chorus] The wave meets the body The body meets the wave One breath, one turning One tide, one shape The water moves through The bones answer back The shore and the ocean Come together at last [Bridge] The room grows still The breath slows down The arms turn to water The bones learn to dream The tide draws close The body lets go The shore and the ocean Become one flow [Final Chorus] The wave meets the body The body meets the wave One breath, one turning One tide, one shape The water moves through The bones answer back The shore and the ocean Come together at last [Outro] The tide rolls out The body remains The shore holds the water The sea holds the name The wave meets the body The body meets the wave One breath, one turning One tide, one shape
