Solomon, the Rain Is Falling Slow
Style: Vibraphone drift

[Verse 1]
Dark branches sway above you, gentle as a held breath
and raindrops tap the hood like tiny songs against the wet
every drop is soft and far away from where you lie
tucked in warm and closer than the wide and darkened sky

[Pre-chorus]
Let the wind go wandering through the leaves and let it roam
nothing out there wants to follow you or find you far from home
close your eyes now, let the hush come rolling in like foam

[Chorus]
Solomon, the rain is falling slow and soft tonight
hush now, Solomon, and let the dark be kind and light
you are held, you are warm, you are safe here in my arm
nothing in this whole wide world will ever bring you harm

[Verse 2]
The branches lean like they are listening for your breath
and every drop that falls is small and gentle as a wish
the night has wrapped its quiet round this little place we made
and nothing here will hurry you or ask you to be brave

[Chorus]
Solomon, the rain is falling slow and soft tonight
hush now, Solomon, and let the dark be kind and light
you are held, you are warm, you are safe here in my arm
nothing in this whole wide world will ever bring you harm

[Bridge]
Sleep can be a small boat drifting easy on the tide
and you will always find me sitting right here by your side
let the raindrops be the rhythm rocking you to rest

[Chorus]
Solomon, the rain is falling slow and soft tonight
hush now, Solomon, and let the dark be kind and light
you are held, you are warm, you are safe here in my arm
nothing in this whole wide world will ever bring you harm

[Outro]
The branches still sway soft above you, hushed and slow
sleep now, little Solomon, and let the whole world go
