White Foam on Dark Pebbles
Style: Glockenspiel

[Verse 1]
Soft foam is folding over stones so dark and still
Quiet clouds are drifting past without a will
You are the warmest thing beneath this fading light
Curled up so safely as we say goodnight

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, the tide has learned to hum so low
Every small wave rocks you gentle as it goes
Close your eyes and feel the calm begin to grow

[Chorus]
Eleanor, the night is holding you so near
Nothing in the dark has any reason for you to fear
Eleanor, my quiet gardener of dreams
Sleep inside the softest hush the evening brings

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past the shore the sky has turned to grey
Wrapping up the last light of the day
You are held as gently as the sand holds every stone
Never once tonight will you be left alone

[Bridge]
Rest your small hands, let the world grow slow and dim
Nothing has to hurry, nothing has to win

[Chorus]
Eleanor, the night is holding you so near
Nothing in the dark has any reason for you to fear
Eleanor, my quiet gardener of dreams
Sleep inside the softest hush the evening brings

[Outro]
Somewhere the foam still settles soft on pebbles dark and slow
Sleep now, Eleanor, and let the gentle water go
