Gleam on the Path
Style: Accordion cradle

[Verse 1]
The garden goes quiet when the moon takes its place
Silver runs soft over gravel and space
You breathe like the hush that comes after the rain
Safe in the dark with no worry, no pain

[Pre-chorus]
Leaves fold themselves down for the night, one by one
Nothing is chasing and nothing need be done
So let your small hands finally soften and rest

[Chorus]
Chase, you are held here, no need for a race
Sleep finds you gentle, wrapped up in your place
Nothing will hurry you, nothing will chase
Chase, you are safe in the night's quiet embrace

[Verse 2]
Somewhere a path holds the shine of the moon
Waiting for morning, for daylight, for June
You are the warmth that no darkness can hide
Curled up and certain with sleep by your side

[Bridge]
Every small sound settles down into grace
Hush finds a home in this warm little place

[Chorus]
Chase, you are held here, no need for a race
Sleep finds you gentle, wrapped up in your place
Nothing will hurry you, nothing will chase
Chase, you are safe in the night's quiet embrace

[Outro]
The gravel still gleams though your eyes have gone still
Sleep on, little one, the night holds you until
