Grey Wool, Soft Rain
Style: Harp lullaby

[Verse 1]
Grey wool is resting warm and soft across my knees tonight
The rain is tapping on the glass so quiet, so light
Somewhere the whole wide world is turning slow
And you are here, held close, and everything is right

[Chorus]
Adam, the dark is only velvet come to call
Nothing can reach you here inside these walls
Sleep now, and let the hours grow small
Adam, I'll be near you through it all

[Verse 2]
The lamp is low, the room has gone to amber and to hush
The wind outside is only passing through the brush
Nothing tonight will ever trouble you
No need to fight the sleep, no need to rush

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes, the night has softened everything it holds
Let your breathing slow to something warm and gold
There is nothing waiting that could ever pull you far

[Chorus]
Adam, the dark is only velvet come to call
Nothing can reach you here inside these walls
Sleep now, and let the hours grow small
Adam, I'll be near you through it all

[Bridge]
However far the night stretches on and on
However long till morning comes with light
You are the safest thing I've ever known
Sleeping sound and sheltered through the night

[Chorus]
Adam, the dark is only velvet come to call
Nothing can reach you here inside these walls
Sleep now, and let the hours grow small
Adam, I'll be near you through it all

[Outro]
The rain has softened to a whisper on the pane
And you are wrapped in warmth that will remain
