Echoes from the Bluff

[Verse 1] Waves don’t speak, but they always reply, To the questions I ask when the breeze runs high. I come up here when the world feels wide, To watch what I’ve lost float out with the tide. Old names drift on a windless hush, Ghosts of the ones I forgot to touch. The sea don’t cry, but it understands — The echo hits different when it’s not planned. [Chorus] Still hear you when the coast goes still, In the hush between the breeze and will. Not every goodbye needs to be loud — Some just echo when the tide pulls out. Some just echo when the tide pulls out. [Verse 2] Still hear your name when the wind feels right,, Like salt on my lips in the edge of night. Some songs fade, but the hum stays near, Like the sound of your laugh in the evening air. Didn’t get to say all the words I meant, But the quiet forgives where the time went. I don’t look back just to feel the ache — Sometimes I smile for both our sake. [Chorus] Still hear you when the coast goes still, In the hush between the breeze and will. Not every goodbye needs to be loud — Some just echo when the tide pulls out. Some just echo when the tide pulls out. [Verse 3] Found your footprint in the bluff-side dirt, Faded out but it didn’t hurt. Just proof you were here, and the tide moved on, Like every small goodbye in a half-sung song. And maybe I don’t need to understand — Some love stays carved into the land. [Bridge] Not everything ends — some of it stays, Like light on the water in slow-spinning waves. You were here. I am too. That’s enough to carry through. [Final Chorus] Still hear you when the coast goes still, In the hush between the breeze and will. Not every goodbye needs to be loud — Some just echo when the tide pulls out. [Outro] If the tide can hold what we leave behind, Then maybe love just shifts, not dies. You don’t need to be here to be near — I still feel you when the sky turns clear. I still feel you when the sky turns clear.
