Cooling Slow
Style: Ambient wash

[Verse 1]
Kitchen light is dimming while the toaster ticks itself to rest
Every small warm sound tonight is settling down to still
Butter dish sits quiet on the counter, cool and calm
Nothing in this house tonight will ever wish you ill

[Pre-chorus]
Everything that hummed and glowed is folding into sleep
Close your eyes and let the hush come drifting soft and deep
There is nowhere safer than this quiet you can keep

[Chorus]
Bronwen, the whole house breathes out slow and low tonight
Nothing needs to hurry, nothing needs to run
Every little corner here is holding you so light
Bronwen, you are safe till the rising of the sun

[Verse 2]
Somewhere past the window all the streetlights soften low
Darkness isn't empty, it's a blanket pulled up high
You don't need to wonder where the warmth of day has gone
It's curled up right beside you like a slow lullaby

[Bridge]
Rest now, little one, let the quiet hold your name
Sleep is just the daylight turning gentle, turning tame

[Chorus]
Bronwen, the whole house breathes out slow and low tonight
Nothing needs to hurry, nothing needs to run
Every little corner here is holding you so light
Bronwen, you are safe till the rising of the sun

[Outro]
Somewhere on the counter something warm is cooling still
Sleep now, Bronwen, safe and warm, however long you will
