Dark Water, Still and Slow
Style: Celesta and strings

[Verse 1]
Dark water moves so slowly over stones worn soft and round
Nothing in the night will hurry, nothing makes a sound
The quiet holds you gently like the calmest thing it found
Safe within the stillness, safe with both feet on the ground

[Pre-chorus]
Let the hush come closer, let the day go drifting far
Close your eyes and settle underneath no need for a star
Somebody is watching over every breath you are

[Chorus]
Nash, my love is steady as the water on the stones
Softly, softly rolling over all the tiny bones
Nash, you are the calm I keep, the warmth I call my own
Sleep now in the quiet dark, you never sleep alone

[Verse 2]
The night has laid its stillness down across the smooth grey shore
Nothing needs an answer and there's nothing to explore
Rest is only rest tonight, and rest is nothing more
You are held as gently as the tide against the door

[Pre-chorus]
Let the hush come closer, let the day go drifting far
Close your eyes and settle underneath no need for a star
Somebody is watching over every breath you are

[Chorus]
Nash, my love is steady as the water on the stones
Softly, softly rolling over all the tiny bones
Nash, you are the calm I keep, the warmth I call my own
Sleep now in the quiet dark, you never sleep alone

[Bridge]
No splash, no rush, no ripple breaking through
Only the slow dark keeping watch on you

[Chorus]
Nash, my love is steady as the water on the stones
Softly, softly rolling over all the tiny bones
Nash, you are the calm I keep, the warmth I call my own
Sleep now in the quiet dark, you never sleep alone

[Outro]
The water settles smooth and slow across the sleeping stones
Rest easy now, my dear one, you are never on your own
