Slow, Beau
Style: Cello cradle

[Verse 1]
The white curtain lifts just a little against the cold glass pane
Midnight breathes so softly it barely stirs the windowpane
Nothing out there can touch you while you're wrapped up warm in here
You are held so gently, safe from anything that brings you pain

[Pre-chorus]
Let your small hands rest now, let the worry drift and go
Every breath grows quieter as the hours settle low
Close your eyes, my darling, there's a hush I want you to know

[Chorus]
Sleep now, Beau, the night is holding you so close and slow
Nothing here can hurt you while the lamplight starts to glow
You are loved beyond all measure, more than words could ever show
Rest easy, Beau, there's nowhere safer that you need to go

[Verse 2]
The glass stays cold but you are warm beneath the blankets deep
Somewhere far the wind is moving but it can't reach where you sleep
You don't have to know the dark tonight, you only need to keep
Drifting soft and slow into the kindest, gentlest sleep

[Pre-chorus]
Let your small hands rest now, let the worry drift and go
Every breath grows quieter as the hours settle low
Close your eyes, my darling, there's a hush I want you to know

[Chorus]
Sleep now, Beau, the night is holding you so close and slow
Nothing here can hurt you while the lamplight starts to glow
You are loved beyond all measure, more than words could ever show
Rest easy, Beau, there's nowhere safer that you need to go

[Bridge]
Whatever the world brings when the morning comes around
You will always be the softest, safest sound

[Chorus]
Sleep now, Beau, the night is holding you so close and slow
Nothing here can hurt you while the lamplight starts to glow
You are loved beyond all measure, more than words could ever show
Rest easy, Beau, there's nowhere safer that you need to go

[Outro]
The curtain settles still against the quiet frosted glass
Sleep on, and know this love was always built to last
