Steady Beam
Style: Cello cradle

[Verse 1]
Somewhere a beam turns slow above the black salt spray
sweeping the cliffs to carry all the dark away
and here in this room the same soft turning glow
wraps around you gently as you settle low

[Pre-chorus]
The waves outside are hushing, folding into foam
every rolling wave is only rocking you home
and nothing in the night has found a way to stay

[Chorus]
Walker, Walker, the light comes sweeping round for you
turning slow and steady just to see you through
hush now, Walker, let the tide pull sleep in near
you are held, you are wanted, there is nothing here to fear

[Verse 2]
The cliffs stand quiet, holding back the reaching sea
and I stand quiet too, just holding on to thee
the spray falls soft as breath against the ancient stone
while you drift somewhere warmer than you've ever known

[Pre-chorus]
The waves outside are hushing, folding into foam
every rolling wave is only rocking you home
and nothing in the night has found a way to stay

[Chorus]
Walker, Walker, the light comes sweeping round for you
turning slow and steady just to see you through
hush now, Walker, let the tide pull sleep in near
you are held, you are wanted, there is nothing here to fear

[Bridge]
Let the dark be soft as water, let the hours turn to rest
you are the calm the whole night keeps against its chest

[Chorus]
Walker, Walker, the light comes sweeping round for you
turning slow and steady just to see you through
hush now, Walker, let the tide pull sleep in near
you are held, you are wanted, there is nothing here to fear

[Outro]
Somewhere that beam still turns above the quiet spray
and you are safe and sleeping as it sweeps the dark away
