Slow Rain, Bertram
Style: Glockenspiel

[Verse 1]
Heavy drops are sliding down the glass so slow tonight
Sliding past the brick wall standing dark and still outside
You are wrapped up warmer than the softest fading light
Nothing out beyond that glass can touch you, none can hide

[Chorus]
Bertram, close your eyes now, let the quiet carry you
Every drop that falls tonight is falling soft for you
Bertram, you are held here, safe in all we say and do
Rest inside this moment, it was always meant for you

[Verse 2]
Wind may knock politely at the corner of the pane
Brick may hold the coldness that the evening brings again
You are curled up cosy while the sky lets loose its rain
Sleep will come and find you like an old familiar friend

[Pre-chorus]
Somewhere past that window all the world is turning grey
Here the lamp is golden and it's chasing dark away
Let the hush come nearer, there is nothing left to say

[Chorus]
Bertram, close your eyes now, let the quiet carry you
Every drop that falls tonight is falling soft for you
Bertram, you are held here, safe in all we say and do
Rest inside this moment, it was always meant for you

[Bridge]
Nothing in the falling rain was ever built to harm
You are folded gently in the deepest kind of calm

[Chorus]
Bertram, close your eyes now, let the quiet carry you
Every drop that falls tonight is falling soft for you
Bertram, you are held here, safe in all we say and do
Rest inside this moment, it was always meant for you

[Outro]
Let the rain keep sliding gently down the darkened glass
Sleep now, you are certain, you will always be this cared for
