Silver Water
Style: Kalimba night

[Verse 1]
Silver water slips from the brass tap down so slow
filling up the basin with a soft and gentle glow
every drop that falls is a hush against the night
and you are the reason this whole house holds its light

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the quiet water hold you still
feel the warmth around you climbing up the windowsill
sleep is coming closer like a tide against the shore

[Chorus]
Gianna, Gianna, the water sings your name so low
you are loved beyond the reaching of the tap's soft flow
rest here where it's gentle, where the porcelain gleams white
Gianna, my Gianna, you are safe here through the night

[Verse 2]
The basin holds the water like my arms will hold you near
every ripple settling tells you there is nothing here to fear
the brass shines soft and steady like a lantern in the dark
and you my dear Gianna are the brightest little spark

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the quiet water hold you still
feel the warmth around you climbing up the windowsill
sleep is coming closer like a tide against the shore

[Chorus]
Gianna, Gianna, the water sings your name so low
you are loved beyond the reaching of the tap's soft flow
rest here where it's gentle, where the porcelain gleams white
Gianna, my Gianna, you are safe here through the night

[Bridge]
Somewhere far the kalimba hums a tune so soft and slow
matching every heartbeat as the water learns to flow
nothing in this whole wide world can touch you while you dream

[Chorus]
Gianna, Gianna, the water sings your name so low
you are loved beyond the reaching of the tap's soft flow
rest here where it's gentle, where the porcelain gleams white
Gianna, my Gianna, you are safe here through the night

[Outro]
The water stills now, resting quiet in the basin white
sleep well, my dear Gianna, you are held here through the night
