Safe Harbor

[Intro]

[humming softly over muted strings]

[Verse 1]

Four walls

A roof that holds the rain

Steam rising from the ceramic

The kettle whistles low

[Chorus]

Safe harbor

[vocal harmony swells]

No more running from the wind

Just the quiet

Just the breath we share

[Verse 2]

Garden soil

Underneath your fingernails

The map is folded in the drawer

[cello enters]

We aren’t going anywhere

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

[crescendo]

The fever breaks

The shadows pull back from the glass

Finally

Finally
