Metal Tracks and Quiet Light
Style: Folk cradle song

[Verse 1]
Somewhere a train runs soft on metal tracks tonight
and headlights sweep in slow across the ceiling white
you're wrapped up warm and held here safe within the light
drifting where the dark turns gentle, turns to quiet

[Chorus]
Angela, the night is only kindness in disguise
close your Angela eyes and let the hours go by
nothing here can touch you, nothing here will harm
you are held so closely, you are always warm

[Verse 2]
The glass hums low while shadows learn to gently glide
and every passing light will find you and pass by
so let the clicking rhythm carry you inside
a dream as steady as the tracks beneath the sky

[Pre-chorus]
Hush now, let your breathing slow to match the beat
of wheels that turn so far off, soft beneath your sleep
you're carried on, you're carried safe, you're carried sweet

[Chorus]
Angela, the night is only kindness in disguise
close your Angela eyes and let the hours go by
nothing here can touch you, nothing here will harm
you are held so closely, you are always warm

[Bridge]
No distance is too far for love to find its way
every light that sweeps the dark is watching over you

[Chorus]
Angela, the night is only kindness in disguise
close your Angela eyes and let the hours go by
nothing here can touch you, nothing here will harm
you are held so closely, you are always warm

[Outro]
The tracks run on to somewhere soft while you lie still
and the light moves on, but you are loved, and always will
