In and Out Like Water

Lying on warm sand at dusk, you notice your breath and the waves are keeping the same slow time.

[Intro]

[instrumental] harp glissandi over a soft organ bed, distant surf

[Verse 1]

Lay a hand on your chest. Feel it rise. Let it fall. Somewhere out on a shore a long wave does the same. (mm)

[Refrain]

In and out like water, slow as the evening sea. In and out like water, nothing to do but breathe.

[Hum]

(mm) (ooh) (mm) (ooh)

[Verse 2]

Warm sand under your back. Green light over your eyes. Each wave coming in lets the last one go. (ooh)

[Refrain]

In and out like water, slow as the evening sea. In and out like water, nothing to do but breathe.

[Drift]

[instrumental] harp figures and suspended organ chords widen slowly under wordless choral hums and faint surf

[Final Refrain]

In and out like water, slow as the evening sea. In and out like water, nothing to do but breathe.

[Outro]

In and out like water. In and out. (mm) (ooh)
