Grief Comes In Waves (Gentle Ambient)

[Intro] (soft piano, distant ocean pads) [Verse 1] Some mornings I am fine, I make the bed I answer all the messages I've read Then a song comes on inside the shop And suddenly the whole world has to stop Nobody warned me it would come and go Like water rising, falling, soft then slow [Pre-Chorus] I'm not going backwards I'm just learning how to float [Chorus] Grief comes in waves, it pulls and it lets go Some days it's high tide, some days it's low I'll let it wash over, I won't fight the sea It only means that love is still in me Grief comes in waves, and waves return to shore I'm still standing here, a little stronger than before [Verse 2] A friend sat with me, didn't try to fix Just made a cup of tea and passed the biscuits We talked about the good days and the hard And watched the evening settle on the yard I'm learning that the ache and joy can share The very same small room, the very same chair [Pre-Chorus] I'm not going backwards I'm just learning how to float [Chorus] Grief comes in waves, it pulls and it lets go Some days it's high tide, some days it's low I'll let it wash over, I won't fight the sea It only means that love is still in me Grief comes in waves, and waves return to shore I'm still standing here, a little stronger than before [Bridge] Breathe in as it rises Breathe out as it falls There's no wrong way to miss someone There's no timeline at all [Final Chorus] Grief comes in waves, and I can let them roll They carve out room for kindness in my soul I'll hold the memories gently, one by one And feel the warmth of every setting sun Grief comes in waves, and waves return to shore I'm still standing here, and loving you once more [Outro] (strings fade into ocean pads) High tide, low tide I'm still here
