The Beam Will Find You
Style: Flute and pad

[Verse 1]
Far across the water a small light starts to turn
holding back the darkness so nothing feels too wide
you are wrapped up warmer than a candle in a lantern
safe here in the hush where the tide has learned to hide

[Chorus]
Lily, Lily, the light turns slow for you
sweeping over water to say the dark is kind
Lily, close your eyes now, there is nothing you must do
the beam will find you gently, again and again it will find

[Verse 2]
The night is only velvet pulled soft around your shoulders
nothing out there wants you, only sleep is on its way
you are held the way the harbour holds the smallest boulders
steady through the hours until the break of day

[Pre-chorus]
Somewhere out beyond the window something turns and glows
it has watched all night for sleepy ones like you
and it keeps on turning slower as your breathing slows

[Chorus]
Lily, Lily, the light turns slow for you
sweeping over water to say the dark is kind
Lily, close your eyes now, there is nothing you must do
the beam will find you gently, again and again it will find

[Bridge]
Rest now, let the dark be soft and round you
nothing in this quiet has ever meant you harm

[Chorus]
Lily, Lily, the light turns slow for you
sweeping over water to say the dark is kind
Lily, close your eyes now, there is nothing you must do
the beam will find you gently, again and again it will find

[Outro]
Somewhere the light keeps turning, patient in the blue
and you are already sleeping, held the whole night through
