Nothing Quite so Gentle - Sofia Talvik

If you’re one step from the grave

How will you know just what to say

How will you tell the tricks that time will play

If you are two steps from your life

How will you ever recognize

All of those crucial things that keep you alive

And the lighthouse at the end of the road

Still shines for you

Still shines for you

And the waves keep crashing into the rocks

But I’ll make do

Yeah, I’ll make do

'cause I believe that they’re still gentler

Than you are

If you are three steps from your heart

How can you tell right and wrong apart

Is there a rule to go by if you’re unsure

And the lighthouse at the end of the road

Still shines for you

Still shines for you

And the waves keep crashing into the rocks

But I’ll make do

Yeah, I’ll make do

'cause I believe that they’re still gentler

Than you are

If you are four steps from your skin

How will you know what’s down within

Down in that hollow shape that bears your name

And the lighthouse at the end of the road

Still shines for you

Still shines for you

And the waves keep crashing into the rocks

But I’ll make do

Yeah, I’ll make do

'cause there is nothing quite so gentle

As you are
