Still Water Blanket
Style: Harp lullaby

[Verse 1]
A woollen blanket rests along the edge of the little boat
While the water underneath you barely moves at all tonight
You are wrapped up warm and steady while the whole wide world stays afloat
Nothing here can reach you now, you're held so soft and tight

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes and feel the gentle rocking of the tide
Every star above is watching over where you lie
Let the quiet carry you to somewhere warm inside

[Chorus]
Geoffrey, the water is still and it's holding you slow
Nothing will wake you, no current, no breeze
Deep in the calm where the soft lanterns glow
Geoffrey, you're safe here, so drift if you please

[Verse 2]
The blanket smells of evening and of somewhere kind and near
Every thread of it was chosen just to keep you warm
You don't have to open your eyes or even hear
You're already further than the reach of any storm

[Bridge]
Let the small boat carry all your worries out of sight
Nothing follows you to where you're going, only light

[Chorus]
Geoffrey, the water is still and it's holding you slow
Nothing will wake you, no current, no breeze
Deep in the calm where the soft lanterns glow
Geoffrey, you're safe here, so drift if you please

[Outro]
The blanket stays warm on the edge of the boat till morning
Sleep now, Geoffrey, the water is holding you gently
