Moonsteel Lullaby

[Verse 1] Lay your heavy head On the velvet dark Cold moon on the window Soft hands in the spark Shallow breath, slow time Quiet in your chest Let the world go thin Let the bones rest [Pre-Chorus] Hush now, darling Let it drift away One soft tide Pulling through the day Close your eyes Let the night come near You are safe here You are safe here [Chorus] Sleep now, sleep now (sleep now) Under moonsteel light (moonsteel light) Sleep now, sleep now (sleep now) Through the long, kind night Float, my love, float (float, my love) On the turning sea Sleep now, sleep now (sleep now) Let the dark hold thee [Verse 2] Pillow and pine Breath and silver bone Even your worry Can find its home No more running No more sharp goodbye Just the slow drift Of a lullaby [Pre-Chorus] Hush now, darling Let it drift away One soft tide Pulling through the day Close your eyes Let the night come near You are safe here You are safe here [Chorus] Sleep now, sleep now (sleep now) Under moonsteel light (moonsteel light) Sleep now, sleep now (sleep now) Through the long, kind night Float, my love, float (float, my love) On the turning sea Sleep now, sleep now (sleep now) Let the dark hold thee [Bridge] I will keep watch By the quiet door Nothing can reach you Nothing anymore [Choir] Breathe in the blue Breathe out the ache Soft as snow Soft as a wave [Final Chorus] Sleep now, sleep now (sleep now) Under moonsteel light (moonsteel light) Sleep now, sleep now (sleep now) Through the long, kind night Float, my love, float (float, my love) On the turning sea Sleep now, sleep now (sleep now) Let the dark hold thee
