Bubbles Under the Tap
Style: Kalimba night

[Verse 1]
Little bubbles rise up slow and settle on your skin
Warm water holds you soft and lets the whole day sink away
You watch them pop so quietly, one by one they thin
There is nowhere you need hurry to, no reason left to stray

[Chorus]
Gerald, Gerald, close your eyes, the water knows your name
Every ripple round you sings the softest kind of song
You are held here, Gerald, safe from anything like blame
Rest inside this quiet now, it's where you still belong

[Verse 2]
Steam is curling upward past the window's cooling glass
Nothing in this room will hurry, nothing needs to race
You could stay here floating gently till the moment passed
Wrapped in warmth that fits you like a slow and steady place

[Pre-chorus]
Hear the tap breathe softer now, its dripping start to fade
Feel your whole body sinking deeper into where it's laid
Sleep is coming closer, gentle, like a quiet trade

[Chorus]
Gerald, Gerald, close your eyes, the water knows your name
Every ripple round you sings the softest kind of song
You are held here, Gerald, safe from anything like blame
Rest inside this quiet now, it's where you still belong

[Bridge]
Towels are waiting warm to wrap around you tight
Someone's here to carry you the short way into night

[Chorus]
Gerald, Gerald, close your eyes, the water knows your name
Every ripple round you sings the softest kind of song
You are held here, Gerald, safe from anything like blame
Rest inside this quiet now, it's where you still belong

[Outro]
Bubbles fade to nothing but the warmth is staying near
Sleep now, Gerald, you are loved, and morning won't come near
