Grey Wool, Soft Light
Style: Rain and piano

[Verse 1]
Grey wool threads are tangling softly on my knee tonight
Somewhere past the window, the last of day gives up its light
You are curled here breathing slower than the settling wool
Warm and small and certain, wrapped in something peaceful and full

[Pre-chorus]
Rain is tapping quiet on the glass beside your head
Nothing in this whole wide world can reach you in this bed
So let your eyes grow heavy as the story softly ends

[Chorus]
Alina, sleep is calling soft and low and slow
Close your eyes, my darling, let the whole night go
Nothing here will hurt you, nothing here will roam
Alina, you are held here, you are always home

[Verse 2]
My fingers keep on winding through the greying woollen thread
While the piano hushes every worry from your head
You do not need to wonder what tomorrow's hours bring
Only need to listen to the rain and let it sing

[Pre-chorus]
Rain is tapping quiet on the glass beside your head
Nothing in this whole wide world can reach you in this bed
So let your eyes grow heavy as the story softly ends

[Chorus]
Alina, sleep is calling soft and low and slow
Close your eyes, my darling, let the whole night go
Nothing here will hurt you, nothing here will roam
Alina, you are held here, you are always home

[Bridge]
Whatever comes tomorrow, you are loved this very way
Held so gently closer than the fading edge of day

[Chorus]
Alina, sleep is calling soft and low and slow
Close your eyes, my darling, let the whole night go
Nothing here will hurt you, nothing here will roam
Alina, you are held here, you are always home

[Outro]
The wool lies still and quiet now, its tangles all at rest
You are sleeping softly now, the safest and the best
