Heavy with Dew
Style: Cello cradle

[Verse 1]
Somewhere the garden is growing heavy and still with dew
Every leaf bending low beneath the weight it holds
Nothing is rushing tonight, love, only you
Wrapped up warm while the dark turns soft and slow

[Pre-chorus]
Close your eyes now, let the hours grow quiet around you
Nothing tonight is asking you to be anything but small
Rest here a while, let the whole wide world slow down too

[Chorus]
Andrew, sleep now, the night is holding you gently
Nothing can reach you, nothing can do you harm
Deep in the hush where the dew falls softly, Andrew
You are the warmth at the centre of this calm

[Verse 2]
Somewhere a window is catching the last of the light
Somewhere the grass is turning silver and cool
You are the reason this whole quiet night feels right
Held here so gently, never a thing to prove

[Bridge]
Let every worry fall away like water off a leaf
Nothing but rest now, nothing but breath and peace

[Chorus]
Andrew, sleep now, the night is holding you gently
Nothing can reach you, nothing can do you harm
Deep in the hush where the dew falls softly, Andrew
You are the warmth at the centre of this calm

[Outro]
Somewhere the garden keeps gathering dew in the dark
Sleep now, my Andrew, you are safe in this hush
