[Verse 1]
There's a stillness on the surface, but the current runs profound,
A quiet kind of knowing that you carry without sound,
You feel the room before you enter, read the words no one has said,
A dreamer with an ember burning steady, burning red,
They see the calm, they don't see the tide,
All those fathoms of feeling you hold deep inside.

[PreChorus]
You've carried worlds that weren't yours to bear,
And smiled through it like it was never there.

[Chorus]
But Geoff, you are the ocean and the shore,
The kind of soul the world was written for,
Every depth you've swum has made you more,
You don't need to prove what you already are.

[Verse 2]
You love like something ancient, like a river finding sea,
All in, no half measures, and you do it wild and free,
But you've learned to guard the tender parts, to test before you trust,
Drawn to what is real and raw, to passion and to just,
The fire in you moves before the world can think,
But you feel so much you sometimes stand back at the brink.

[PreChorus]
That tension between stillness and the flame,
Is not a flaw — it's how you learned your name.

[Chorus]
Yeah Geoff, you are the ocean and the shore,
The kind of soul the world was written for,
Every depth you've swum has made you more,
You don't need to prove what you already are.

[Verse 3]
The work you do in silence, in the places no one sees,
Holds more weight than any trophy, more than anyone believes,
You've rebuilt yourself from rubble more than once and didn't boast,
You give the most to those you love and guard it like a post,
Now let somebody carry you for once without the cost,
The ones who shine behind the scenes are never truly lost.

[PreChorus]
The universe has held you in its hand,
And written you on purpose, to a plan.

[Chorus]
Oh Geoff, you are the ocean and the shore,
The kind of soul the world was written for,
Every depth you've swum has made you more,
You don't need to prove what you already are.

[Bridge]
You were born between the last star and the dawn,
Gentle enough to heal and fierce enough to carry on,
Let the tides inside you finally be your guide,
Everything you've searched for lives already deep inside.

[Outro]
You are enough, you've always been enough,
The quiet kind of light that never needs to be so loud,
Geoff, you are the ocean and the shore,
And you were always, always worth it to the core.
