Pebbles in the Dark
Style: Accordion cradle

[Verse 1]
Far below the cliff the pebbles turn in the tide
Softly tumbling where the dark water runs deep
Nothing out there needs to trouble what's inside
This whole house is built around your sleep

[Chorus]
Hannah, hush now, let the night come slow and kind
Every wave out there is rocking you to rest
Hannah, close your eyes and leave the world behind
You are held here, you are safe, you are blessed

[Verse 2]
The stones don't hurry as they roll along the shore
Taking their time in the cool and the foam
Nothing in this world could love you any more
You are the warmest light in this small home

[Pre-chorus]
Somewhere the tide is turning soft and slow
Somewhere the wind has settled down to rest
And here the lamp is low and getting lower

[Chorus]
Hannah, hush now, let the night come slow and kind
Every wave out there is rocking you to rest
Hannah, close your eyes and leave the world behind
You are held here, you are safe, you are blessed

[Bridge]
Sleep now, there is nothing you need carry
Only breath, only warmth, only you
The dark outside is gentle, never scary

[Chorus]
Hannah, hush now, let the night come slow and kind
Every wave out there is rocking you to rest
Hannah, close your eyes and leave the world behind
You are held here, you are safe, you are blessed

[Outro]
Down past the cliff the pebbles settle in the sand
You are held here tonight, safe within this hand
