Cotton and Moonlight
Style: Flute and pad

[Verse 1]
A cool little breeze comes to visit the room tonight
it lifts the white curtains so soft and so light
and under the blanket you're warm as can be
safe as the moon hanging over the tree

[Chorus]
Elsi, Elsi, the night holds you near
every small sound has come to disappear
close your two hands and let go of the day
Elsi, my darling, just drift away

[Verse 2]
Somewhere outside a soft wind starts to hum
it carries the hush of everywhere it's from
and folds itself down where your pillow lies flat
kissing your forehead and settling like that

[Pre-chorus]
Your breathing slows now, easy and low
heavier eyelids, wherever you go
sleep is just waiting to carry you in

[Chorus]
Elsi, Elsi, the night holds you near
every small sound has come to disappear
close your two hands and let go of the day
Elsi, my darling, just drift away

[Bridge]
No need to wander, no need to roam
this quiet room is your own small home
I'll stay right here till the morning light grows

[Chorus]
Elsi, Elsi, the night holds you near
every small sound has come to disappear
close your two hands and let go of the day
Elsi, my darling, just drift away

[Outro]
The curtain settles, its drifting all done
sleep soft, my Elsi, till morning has come
