Steam Rising Slow
Style: Flute and pad

[Verse 1]
Warm water settles and lets every worry sink down
Droplets slide gently along the white and curving side
Steam climbs so softly above you without any sound
You are the calm this whole quiet evening will provide

[Pre-chorus]
Wrapped up so warm now, your breathing starts to slow
Nothing can reach you, no shadow and no sound
Close your eyes softly as the light begins to go

[Chorus]
Harriet, the night has come to carry you to rest
Sleep is a river and you're floating safe and slow
Nothing in this whole wide world could love you more or best
Harriet, let go now, there's nowhere else to go

[Verse 2]
Little clouds of steam rise up and fade above your head
Soft as breath and quiet as the hush of falling snow
You are the warmest thing in this small, gentle bed
Held here safely while the outside world lets go

[Pre-chorus]
Wrapped up so warm now, your breathing starts to slow
Nothing can reach you, no shadow and no sound
Close your eyes softly as the light begins to go

[Chorus]
Harriet, the night has come to carry you to rest
Sleep is a river and you're floating safe and slow
Nothing in this whole wide world could love you more or best
Harriet, let go now, there's nowhere else to go

[Bridge]
Every drop that falls is just another minute passing gently
Every breath you take is one more reason to be still

[Chorus]
Harriet, the night has come to carry you to rest
Sleep is a river and you're floating safe and slow
Nothing in this whole wide world could love you more or best
Harriet, let go now, there's nowhere else to go

[Outro]
Steam still rises softly though the water's turning still
Sleep now, little Harriet, you are safe and always will
