A Slow Light Turning
Style: Gentle acoustic

[Verse 1]
A slow white light turns far beyond the window pane
It sweeps the ceiling soft and finds you once again
It does not hurry, it only glides and stays
It circles round to watch you through the quiet haze

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the turning light keep watch
Nothing in this room will ever reach you here
Rest a little deeper, love is standing near

[Chorus]
Harley, the light is turning soft above your head
Sleep now, Harley, safe and warm inside your bed
Nothing can shake you while the slow beam finds its way
Harley, my dear one, you are held till break of day

[Verse 2]
Somewhere a lighthouse leans against the far off dark
Sending its beam to trace a gentle steady arc
It never asks for thanks, it just keeps turning round
The way my arms stay wrapped around you, safe and sound

[Bridge]
Let the hush come slow like tide against the shore
You are the calm this whole house waits for
Nothing tonight will ever ask you to be strong

[Chorus]
Harley, the light is turning soft above your head
Sleep now, Harley, safe and warm inside your bed
Nothing can shake you while the slow beam finds its way
Harley, my dear one, you are held till break of day

[Outro]
The light still turns out there beyond the window pane
But you are already drifting, safe from any harm
