Rock You Slow
Style: Harp lullaby

[Verse 1]
Wooden chair, keep on rocking soft and low
Cradling all the warmth I want you to know
Bare old floorboards humming underneath our feet
Holding you close while the whole wide world's asleep

[Pre-chorus]
Every creak is saying you are safe tonight
Darkness holds no worry, only quiet light
Close your eyes now, let the hush pull you in tight

[Chorus]
Esther, Esther, rest your head on me
Nothing in this night could ever harm or hinder thee
Wrapped in warmth as soft as any song can render
Sleep now, Esther, small and safe and tender

[Verse 2]
Shadows soften into shapes of gentle grey
Nothing here to fear when morning's far away
Slowly the chair keeps its steady, patient beat
Rocking out the day until your dreams feel sweet

[Pre-chorus]
Every creak is saying you are safe tonight
Darkness holds no worry, only quiet light
Close your eyes now, let the hush pull you in tight

[Chorus]
Esther, Esther, rest your head on me
Nothing in this night could ever harm or hinder thee
Wrapped in warmth as soft as any song can render
Sleep now, Esther, small and safe and tender

[Bridge]
Hush now, nothing stirs beyond this quiet room
Only love keeps watch here in the gentle gloom

[Chorus]
Esther, Esther, rest your head on me
Nothing in this night could ever harm or hinder thee
Wrapped in warmth as soft as any song can render
Sleep now, Esther, small and safe and tender

[Outro]
Let the old chair rock till every worry's gone
Sleep now, Esther, safe and warm till dawn
