Slow the Water
Style: Ambient wash

[Verse 1]
Somewhere a tap is letting its water go slow
drop by drop into the warm and waiting tub
hush is the only sound that the whole house will know
and you are the reason my heart beats so full

[Chorus]
Cerys, the night is holding you soft and near
close your eyes, love, there is nothing to fear
you are the calm at the end of my day
Cerys, sleep now, I am here to stay

[Verse 2]
The water runs warm and it never runs fast
filling the tub the way love fills a room
you are so small but your light is so vast
and I would sit here till the stars fill the gloom

[Pre-chorus]
Let every worry drift down and away
let your small breaths slow at the end of the day
let sleep come in like the turn of a tide

[Chorus]
Cerys, the night is holding you soft and near
close your eyes, love, there is nothing to fear
you are the calm at the end of my day
Cerys, sleep now, I am here to stay

[Bridge]
Every drop that falls is a moment I keep
held in my hand while you drift into sleep
nothing can touch you while I'm holding on

[Chorus]
Cerys, the night is holding you soft and near
close your eyes, love, there is nothing to fear
you are the calm at the end of my day
Cerys, sleep now, I am here to stay

[Outro]
Somewhere the water has slowed to a rest
and you are the softest and safest and best
